Superwomen

by Albert Payson Terhune

This 1916 work explores the lives of twelve remarkable women whose actions have shaped world history. From iconic figures like Cleopatra and Helen of Troy to lesser-known individuals whose contributions were less visible, the book delves into their lives and achievements. The author presents these women not just as historical figures but also as symbols of female strength, ingenuity, and influence, offering a perspective on their roles and contributions in a time when women were often relegated to the margins of society.
