Publisher's Synopsis
The audience will include:
- Women ages 12 to 102: The volume would be an apropos gift for fodder in the modern day water coolers: emails, texts, and Twitter-wherever schadenfreude is required.
- Popular History readers of both genders. The women profiled are from various historical epochs and oftentimes cast a new slant on their eras.
- Viewers of The Biography Channel. Each chapter offers a biography of a woman who caused ripples in her respective milieu.
- Women Studies Courses: Traditional Women's Studies focuses on the Amazonian females-those whose leadership and pioneering spirit are beacons of female empowerment. These women are not those traditionally lionized by society; they left their impact by going against the grain.
