Ladies of Liberty: The Women Who Shaped Our Nation

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Diane Goode. Brief vignettes focus on a diverse selection of lesser-known women significant to American history. An opening timeline places the women in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; each subsequent engaging micro-biography is aided by lively portraits with watercolor washes. Roberts and Goode's second collective biography for mid-elementary readers (Founding Mothers) once again effectively highlights the overlooked role of women in early American history.
