Title: Bold women in Alaska history
Description: "From Natalia Shelikhova, unofficially the first women governor of Russia Alaska, to the pioneer Iditarod racer Mary Shields, the eleven women portrayed in this engaging book were indeed bold--breaking down barriers of sexism, racism, and political opposition to emerge as heroines of their time. Perfect for school or home, this collection of short but informative biographies is both a valuable resource and an entertaining read"--Provided by publisher.
