520 1 $a"This collection of seventeen biographies, produced by the Mississippi Women's History Project, is an important step toward gaining the state's women their deserved place in its written record. The women whose absorbing life stories are told here range from Felicite Girodeau of old Natchez, who was both a person of color and a slaveholder, to Vera Mae Pigee, who "mothered" the civil rights movement in the Mississippi Delta.
520 8 $aSome of the women are well known, others were prominent in their time but have since faded into obscurity, and a few have never received the attention they deserve."--Jacket.
