151 Nonfiction Books to Discover This Women's History Month - Page 3

"March is Women's History Month in the U.S. (in the U.K. and Australia, too!), and while we hold that it's good to read about women's history and accomplishments throughout the year, this is the month when we like to pitch in with a specially curated collection.

As such, we have collected below 151 nonfiction titles on women's history and affiliated topics, as recommended by your fellow Goodreads regulars. The list is divided into three categories: General Nonfiction, Histories/Biographies, and Memoirs. Each of the books listed is relatively recent, published within the past 10 years, with newer books stacked toward the top of each category."
