The way these inspiring women's stories are woven together creates a truly unique picture of each life, shining a light on their commonalities. Classic heroines like Sacagawea, Sojourner Truth, Susan B. Anthony, and Harriet Tubman are featured, along with lesser-known women who forged a path to a better country.
