This was a very well written, well researched, beautifully illustrated book that highlighted twenty five remarkable women who were certainly defiant, but they were also women that made history with their dynamic exploits, especially in times when submissiveness was the norm. They defied the odds and made a name for themselves, and now thanks to the authors, their names and place in history will no longer be silent or ignored.

This is the type of book that should be in classrooms (14-18 age group) and prominently showcased, especially during the celebration of Women’s History month in March. These women have earned that right.

Very highly recommended!

History vs Women: The Defiant Lives that They Don't Want You to Know by Anita Sarkeesian and Ebony Adams is an amazing book, incredibly informative and interesting.
