Title: Valiant women
Description: Provides a collection of women's personal accounts that pose questions particularly relevant today. These stories come from women with diverse political loyalties and range from pre-World War I Europe to Central America in the 1980s. They are told by women in combat, social workers in refugee camps, nuns and nurses; but also by mothers, daughters, and wives who have been victims, survivors, and leaders--by women who took active command of their lives, dealt with grief, terror, and loss, and did what had to be done.
