Description
The acclaimed Women’s Hall of Fame series continues with profiles of ten women wordsmiths who made history in their own uniquely creative ways. From L.M. Montgomery and George Eliot to Margaret Atwood and J.K. Rowling, Ball covers a wide range of both time periods and styles. Remarkable Women Writers inspires even reluctant scribes to pick up a pen or sit down at a keyboard and put their experiences into words.
