Description
Featuring beautiful illustrated maps and portraits by Aja O'Han, each walk covers a different neighborhood, including Brooklyn Heights and Dumbo, Central Park, Chelsea, Chinatown, East Side, Greenwich Village, Harlem, Midtown, Roosevelt Island, and SoHo. The walks can be done individually or paired together for an ultimate walking history lesson. While some stops along the walks are worth an extended visit, such as a museum, others are marked as "on the way." All include significant landmarks of women's history, some of them not yet memorialized. The stories and events of famous and lesser-known women come alive within the pages of the book and on each street corner, as readers can walk in the steps of this diverse set of creative women.
