Product Description

U.S. women's history for everyone! Explore the history you never learned in school. Experience the everyday struggles, delights, and courage of America's women from the Revolutionary War to the present in a format that all readers can enjoy. Dabble in history at a glance, or immerse yourself in comprehensive study. Read it for pleasure, or use it in the classroom. Historian Sally Roesch Wagner says, 'This is the book I've been waiting for. Full of rich and well-researched detail, it is a breathtaking swoop of everything from popular culture to suffrage, distilling complex material down to easy to understand information, and full of engagingly good anecdotes. The feel and taste and smell of the time come alive and the attention to accuracy is exemplary. Most importantly, it is not the typical narrow-focused history of white women of means, but the multifaceted story of the diversity of histories that speaks to all women of the United States. A joy to read!'

Can't put it down!

Review Date: April 24, 2009

Reviewer: A. Thompson,

I am friends with one of the authors and remember when she and her sister finally sent off their last edits, after 5+ years of research (while raising small children). So I bought the book primarily to support her -- then started reading it and could not put it down! Women Making America should be in every junior high and high school in this country. It's comprehensive and informative, but also fun, fascinating, inspiring, and totally engaging. Plus, the illustrations/photos are incredible. I plan to buy more copies and give them to all my fellow Moms-of-daughters. Even if you don't have daughters or aren't a woman, this book is bound to captivate you.
