This is part of the Images of America series so there is more emphasis on the pictures included.  It goes way back, prior to Statehood in 1859, highlight some of the indigenous woman who were in the area.  I did find out that the Sacajawea statue in Washington was driven by suffragettes who considered her a symbol of women's strength.   The women covered are a cross section of the population, women of color, women of wealth and middle class who have come to be well known.
