Description
Aphra Behn, first female professional author. 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 on this gorgeously illustrated book were bad in the most efficient sense of the word: they challenged the established order and changed the principles for all who followed. From pirates to artists, warriors, daredevils, scientists, activists, and spies, the accomplishments of those fantastic women vary up to the eras and places during which they effected change. Featuring bold watercolor portraits and illuminating essays by Ann Shen, Bad Girls All the way through History is a distinctive, gift-worthy tribute.
