Customer Reviews

Fabulous reference book for anyone interested in history.

James Trager has written a book chock full of what is normally left out of history classes--the facinating tidbits of real life. Best of all, this book shows that women weren't just staying at home and raising children, but were active participants in life. Well researched, thoroughly cross references, this is a book that can provide hours of browsing pleasure. For any writer, this is a must-have on the reference shelf. For any feminist, this is also a great way to realize that women haven't been invisible people in history.
