Beautiful Art, Interesting Biographical Snippets submitted by sdunav on July 8, 2018, 12:58pm I picked this up from the New Book shelf on a whim, and was pleasantly surprised by it. It's a pocket sized book with short one-page biographies of 100 "feminist saints" - historical and contemporary, American and from many foreign countries. I loved the original paintings of these women, and found the histories well-researched, accurate, and entertaining. It's a perfect little book for browsing, and although I thought I knew a lot about the history of feminism and women's history, I found a lot that was new to me.
