Excerpt: 

This site has biographies of women who contributed to our culture in many different ways. There are writers, educators, scientists, heads of state, politicians, civil rights crusaders, artists, entertainers, and others. Some were alive hundreds of years ago and some are living today. We've heard of some of them, while many more have been ignored by history book writers. I'd like to acknowledge as many as I can.

Annotation: 

This text only, one-page site contains a list of about 20 women (half born before the twentieth century and half born in the twentieth century) who participated in the history of agriculture and horticulture. Each entry has at least one link to other Web sites that provide biographical information and information about their work. There are no images or biographical material on this site, however; only links.
