(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Willow Dawson. Seven short comics present stories about women disguised as men throughout history. Figures sometimes considered apocryphal or legendary (Alfhild and Hua Mulan) are included alongside actual women with no differentiation, and many historically controversial assertions are stated as fact. Still, it's an enjoyable and unique presentation of little-known women's history. Reading list.
