(4) 4-6 Women's Stories from History series. The series profiles American and British women--e.g, Emmaline Pankhurst (Suffrage) and Betty Friedan (1960s)--who challenged their era's social norms. Contextualized with period quotations, the readable volumes cover the suffrage movement, the fight for civil liberties, sexism in the workplace, and socioeconomic issues. Scarcely illustrated (more photographs would be helpful), these are adequate surveys of period activists. Reading list, timeline. Glos., ind. Review covers the following Women's Stories from History titles: Stories of Women's Suffrage and Stories of Women in the 1960s.
