Customer Reviews

Very Nice, Very Comprehensive Book of American Women!

This is a great encyclopedia of American women. I sat down and read the whole book so I can tell you it is very comprehensive and very well written. This is a great addition to any public or school library as well as any classroom library in a middle school or high school. A great resource.

Excellent Book

This book was wonderful! It contains very interesting facts about the earliest women in America. The book starts with Pocahontas and goes all the way to Maya Lynn. It contains over one hundred women,just in the United States! They came from less prvileged homes to First Ladies. This book has little sidebars that have facts about women or things that happened in that time. I think this is a great book.
