Women’s Words

Mary Biggs, ed.

Columbia University Press, $24.95

This wide-ranging collection of women’s quotations is crammed with nuggets on every subject imaginable, from politics to prostitution and from books to breastfeeding. All of the more than 3,000 quotations are cited with speaker, profession, source and, in some cases, Biggs’ commentary on its context.
