The Women

by Alice Taylor

Overview

'We walk in the footprints of great women, women who lived through hard times on farms, in villages, towns and cities. The lives of these women are an untold story. This book is a celebration of the often forgotten "ordinary" women who gave so much to our society.'
Alice Taylor

Alice salutes the women whose energy and generosity made such a valuable contribution to all our lives.

'[It] warmed my heart and reminded me of the value of family, friendship and community... I was enthralled... wonderful.' Irish Independent on And Time Stood Still
