Beyond the Latino World War II Hero: The Social and Political Legacy of a Generation
This collection is a quick glimpse at a lot of different American women. Some of the ones you've heard of, and a lot I hadn't. I appreciated learning about these American heroines, especially the lady scientists. I wish she had made some substitutions (Susan LaFlesche Picotte for Elizabeth Blackwell), and included Native American women (Picotte would have served for both). I don't think I could expect too much from a book from a Republican senator on LGTBQ women, consideri g that she summed up Carolyn McCarthy by saying "Though I disagree with Carolyn on the gun issue," after blithely mentioning that McCarthy's son and husband were shot in a mass murder spree.
