Dead Feminists: Historic Heroines in Living Color by Jessica Spring, Chandler O'Leary
4.0
An art collective started making broadsides, to commemorate famous women in history, but also to raise money for various causes. They have been doing this for a number of years, and decided to collect all of these broadsides into a book.
But what good would such a book be, if you knew nothing about the women that inspired these. So each of the braodsides, which were created, have a breakdown of why the symbles used, and text used were done, plus a short bio of each woman. And perhaps you think you know Marie Curie, or Rachel Carson, but after reading this book you will learn more, so much more.
This is a great collection of wonderful women, and wonderful history.
Everyone should ahve this book as a wonderful history lesson, as well as a beautiful piece of artwork.
Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
