Fiery Women of Inconvenience

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Eighteen women. Eighteen true stories. Every one of them inconvenient. Lizzie Magie built the board the world still plays, and someone else's name is on the box. Margaret Knight invented the machine behind the flat-bottomed paper bag, and took it back when a man tried to patent it first. Claudette Colvin sat down on a Montgomery bus at fifteen, nine months before Rosa Parks, and they chose a safer face. This is not the softened version. Every fact was read raw from a real source before it was written, and the corrections are left in, because the correction is the point. Where the record is thin, the page says so. Where no likeness survives, no face is invented.
