This book covers such an important part of women's history - and one that's often overlooked. Merryman clearly did a lot of research, and really brings history to life in this book. The women covered were truly amazing, and absolutely deserve recognition for all they did and the barriers they broke. It's sad to think how little has changed, but nice to know that their story is finally being told. Highly recommend for anyone interested in history!
