Winning the Earthquake ~ How Jeannette Rankin Defied All Odds to Become the First Woman in Congress (by Larissa Rinehart)

What an amazing Jeannette Rankin was. I had never heard of her before picking up this book and getting to learn about her life. The author has done a phenomenal amount of research into the time period in which Jeannette lived, the political climate, the male-dominated world, and the strength of so many women who fought for women's right to vote and pave the way for their many future achievements. A very interesting and enlightening read.
