Uppity Women of Medieval Times

[L. Morris]

Conari Press announces the release of:

UPPITY WOMEN OF MEDIEVAL TIMES
by Vicki Le=F3n

More than two hundred tales of damsels definitely NOT in distress!

The dark ages were indeed dismal for most of our foresisters. Arranged
marriages, husbands off crusading, and just try to keep a house clean in
the middle of the Black Plague! But a few feisty femmes rose from the
muck of the middle ages to accomplish extraordinary feats of bravery,
achievements in art, successes in commerce and shocks to the social
system. In UPPITY WOMEN OF MEDIEVAL TIMES (May 1997; Paperback; $14.95)
historian Vicki Le=F3n profiles more than two hundred of these gallant
gals and their exciting escapades.
