Hannah Jewell is a British-American journalist and author who has worked for the Washington Post and BuzzFeed. 100 Nasty Women of History is a witty, irreverent and thoroughly entertaining celebration of one hundred remarkable women throughout history who defied expectations, broke rules and changed the world. Jewell writes with sharp... humour and infectious enthusiasm about women from all walks of life and all periods of history, from warriors and scientists to activists and artists, reclaiming the word nasty as a badge of honour for women who refused to be quiet, polite or invisible. The book has been praised for its accessibility, its humour and its ability to make history entertaining without trivialising its subjects.
