Beautiful collection of stories from the 70’s and 80’s of women who were trailblazers during that time! Very inspirational.

This book sucks. The reader is drawn in with the hope of reading about women in shamanic culture and is left with a compilation of inane pseudo-biographies of new-age chicks. The 'author' could have compiled all of this drivel from the internet. Not snappy. Thumbs down.

This was excellent even though not current in terms of how women are perceived, it is amazing to see how far we've come in just a short amount of time.

Inspiring stories of women who have trusted the inner voice and followed their faith.
