Beschreibung
Britain has a hidden wealth of fascinating and important women peppered throughout its history, perhaps more than any other European nation. This book is an introduction to thirty-seven British women whom I believe are truly exceptional and, since the 1st century AD, their lives have dramatically influenced British history and culture. You will know some of them, but you may not know others. This is an introduction to them and it also includes a list of other women that you will find worthy of your own research. Please note, however, that each of these chapters is an introduction and you may wish to read more about them yourselves. This book is a sequel to my book The Extra Ordinary Women of France. Both books were inspired by a visit I took some years ago to the Panthéon in Paris, the mausoleum for the interment of famous men and women of France. There were 81 people interred there of which only 6 were women. Hence, the idea for both these books. I know you will find them fascinating. They should be available from booksellers and from Amazon.
