I\u2019m looking for a book that I read many years ago – it would have been mid-1970\u2019s or so. I\u2019m not sure if the book was printed then or earlier (1960\u2019s). It wasn\u2019t a picture book, but rather, a chapter book (I had it in a hardcover edition). Although I was young when I read it, this wasn\u2019t a typical children\u2019s book. It might have been more along the lines of a young adult book. \u00a0It was an anthology of women in history and included chapters with summary bios on Clara Barton, Jane Addams (of Hull House), Florence Nightingale, Harriet Tubman, and Susan B. Anthony (I know these women were included). Amelia Earhart might be another. Abigail Adams or Dolley Madison might have also been included, but I may be wrong about them. I can\u2019t remember much about it other than the subjects were all women and it was the first I had read of Jane Addams and Hull House.<\/p>\n
