This inspiring calendar profiles fifty-three outstanding women--both historical and contemporary--who have made profound contributions in art, education, politics, sports, science, and other endeavors. Each week of the calendar features the image of a remarkable woman--Charlotte Brontë, Queen Elizabeth I, Mother Jones, and many others--along with a lucid, compelling biography; each day presents a milestone event, birthday, or anniversary in women's history. Also included: a brief introduction, full-page 2009 and 2010 yearly grids, and a list of international holidays.
