Wells, Kroeger examines the lives of the best-remembered-- and many long-forgotten-- woman journalists. She explores the careers of standout woman reporters who covered the major news stories and every conflict at home and abroad since before the Civil War, and celebrates those exceptional careers up to the present. In chronicling the lives of journalists and newsroom leaders in every medium, Kroeger examine a larger story: the nearly two-centuries-old struggle for women's rights from the late 1800s through the legal battles of the 1970s to the #MeToo movement and today's racial and gender disparities. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 070.4082 Kr Transit Add Copy to MyList
