Women’s History Month

March is Women’s History Month. I tried to do some reading about distinguished American Women, and found somewhat limited resources available online. It was difficult to even find out that Women’s History Month wasn’t even established until 1987 – a mere 21 years ago. So, I’ve gathered some Women in History links for Women’s History Month. Most of the links are related to Women in American History – but there are also general links for Women’s History timelines and History of the Women’s Movement etc. – anything I felt could be related to Women’s History Month, and just want to share the informational links with all who are interested.
