Marilyn French

From Eve To Dawn, A History Of Women In The World, Volume 1: From Prehistory to the first Millenium Marilyn French

?[Marilyn French] draws on a vast body of research and help from consultants in all sorts of fields, to open out areas that are rarely accessible.??Guardian

?As a reference work it?s invaluable: the bibliographies alone are worth the price. And as a warning about the appalling extremes of human behavior and male weirdness, it?s indispensable.??Margaret Atwood, The Times (London)

In her powerful and bold writing style, best-selling author Marilyn French synthesizes women?s history from our pre-historical roots through the rise of states across the globe to the onset of state-backed religions in this first of four readable volumes.
