In this book; members of the American Association of University Women in New York State have meticulously researched the lives and actions of some of New Yorks finest women. Some of the names are renowned; like the great emancipator Harriet Tubman; who settled in Auburn; and some are less so; such as Linda Tetor; who fought for the rights of senior citizens in Steuben County and throughout the state. Discover the stories of these indomitable women who; from Long Island and Manhattan to Buffalo and Fredonia; have steered the course of New Yorks history from the colonial era through today.

When I turned a page. the spine broke--there is no flexibility remaining. Turning each page cracks the old. old glue. The pages are technically in tact--but not appealing. the book smells musty. It was past time to recycle this copy. not to sell it.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

Brighton UKwow... not what i expected.while the plot itself does not have time to become remarkable. the characters are animated enough to compensate. the whole thing seemed to be a cartoonish farce; i could not help thinking of old beatles movies and episodes of scooby doo (?)this appears to have been written from an altered perspective (or was intended to convey one) as characters shift in and out of the storys focus in a stalled. haphazard way such that each one is grooving to his own inner music. the individuality and breadth of creativity displayed here by thomas and his unique assembly of characters is amazing considering the books platry 60 pages.highly recommeded.
