'Eleanor is annoyingly clever & maddeningly funny as this book proves. She may have to be destroyed.' -Dawn French

Take a tour of the past and uncover stories of the women whose lives and achievements have shaped our modern world. In Life Lessons from Historical Women, Eleanor Morton celebrates the ordinary women whose decisions and accomplishments in their everyday lives resonate with us today.

Taking inspiration from the thriving self-help genre, Morton reasons that the greatest lessons can be taken from the female forebears who have come before - women whose actions inspire purpose, creativity and rebellion... without a side of pseudo psychology and judgement...

Covering the full gamut of the female experience, and women from all corners of history and the globe, Life Lessons from Historical Women includes chapters on 'How To Thrive' with Judith Kerr, 'Think Like an Entrepreneur' with Mary Seacole, and 'How Not to Give a Fuck' with the famous suffragette martyr Emily Davison.

Whether it's what we can learn from the first woman to summit Everest or the trailblazing ladies who confirm that pockets have always been must-have in women's clothing, Eleanor writes with humour and a sincere respect for our history, and imparts valuable lessons for the modern female.

Arvustused

Eleanor is annoyingly clever & maddeningly funny as this book proves. She may have to be destroyed. -- Dawn French Eleanor knows loads about history, and she's really funny, so I consider her an existential threat to my career. I will not rest until this fantastic book is banned! -- Greg Jenner, public historian, host & creator of Youre Dead To Me 'Eleanor's writing is as amusing as it is informative, like a funny squirrel that teaches you about institutional sexism.' -- Alasdair Beckett King 'For a stupid-head like me this is PERFECT. It's so accessible, you can dip in and out and it'll give you lots of great stuff you can say to friends and pass off as knowledge you picked up in the way a smart person would.' -- Sooz Kempner 'A wickedly funny and informative whistle-stop tour of women's history.' -- Michael Fry 'Morton uses humour to offset her indignation at the way women have been treated in history.' * Scotsman * 'Packing the book with humour.' -- The Sunday Post
