About this listen

 Dive into the inspiring world of Louise Creighton (1850-1936), a British author and womens rights activist who balanced her role as a mother of seven with a passion for storytelling. In this captivating short book, Creighton brings to life the stories of remarkable women, from iconic figures like Joan of Arc, Florence Nightingale, and Queen Victoria to lesser-known but equally influential women such as St. Hilda, the 7th-century abbess, Elizabeth Fry, a pioneering prison reformer, and Isabella Bird, whose adventurous travels captivated the Victorian imagination. Join Pamela Nagami, M.D., as she narrates these compelling tales of courage and resilience.
