The Bomb Heard around the World by Gregory Marquette

An interesting story, but not particularly well-told.

Female Firebrands by Mikaela Kiner

So if you've never, ever read anything about female empowerment, sexual harassment, working mothers, and intersectionality, this is a great starting place. Otherwise, it's very basic.
