Book
Warrior queens & quiet revolutionaries : how women (also) built the world / Kate Mosse.
Mosse shares under-heard women's history, and shows how and why women's achievements have routinely been omitted from the history books. Her book is both an alternative feminist history of the world and a personal memoir about the nature of women's struggles to be heard, about how history is made and by whom. Each of the ten sections covers a different category of women's achievements in history, and provides a genuinely diverse, truly global perspective. -- adapted from jacke
