[ebooks] New Mexico Cocktails: A History of Drinking in the Land of Enchantment (American Palate) by Greg Mays at Arts-Photography

Description

Aphra Behn; first female professional writer. Sojourner Truth; activist and abolitionist. Ada Lovelace; first computer programmer. Marie Curie; first woman to win the Nobel Prize. Joan Jett; godmother of punk. The 100 revolutionary women highlighted in this gorgeously illustrated book were bad in the best sense of the word: they challenged the status quo and changed the rules for all who followed. From pirates to artists; warriors; daredevils; scientists; activists; and spies; the accomplishments of these incredible women vary as much as the eras and places in which they effected change. Featuring bold watercolor portraits and illuminating essays by Ann Shen; Bad Girls Throughout History is a distinctive; worthy tribute.
