A History of Women in the United States: A State by State Reference A History of Women in the United States presents a unique and fresh perspective on women from pre-colonial times to the present. The reference narrates the history of women in all regions on a state-by-state basis, being the first women's history to take this local perspective. Substantive articles on each state include historical narratives, maps of the state, biographical profiles, timelines, descriptions of prominent sites relating to women's history, and extensive bibliographic and directories on women's resources. Published by Grolier, 2004 Awards Booklist, Editor's Choice 2004 Review Quotes "The past few years have seen the publication of several other multivolume women's history resources...This newest addition's state-by-state perspective makes it unique.
