This book surprised me. I did not know what to expect but was pleased with what I found. The book is more academic than I thought it would be but that was fine with me. I had some knowledge of the women but learned a lot from this book. The author knew her subject matter and presented it in a way that was easy to read and understand. I think this book would be benefit for anyone interested in these women writers.
