Collins uses a sprightly style and exhaustive research to recount the lives of "400 years of dolls, drudges, helpmates, and heroines", focusing on women famous and obscure who helped define what it means to be a woman in America.

This is the book that sparked my love of women's history when I was just starting to try to figure out what direction I wanted to go in. The bibliography is beyond phenomenal and worth getting the book alone.
