They Dared to Roar, Kathy Herran’s second book, will be released in October 2010. It is a collection of biographies of nine women who made a difference in the 1800’s: Angelina and Sarah Grimke’, Sarah Polk, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Susan B. Anthony, Clara Barton, Harriet Irwin, Anna Jackson, and Sarah E. Goode. The ladies are brought to life through photographs and dialogue within the new, hardback publication.
 
These 19th century women have strong stories to tell as they worked to better our nation. They built organizations to service the needs of our country, helped to heal wounds from a civil war, and strove for greater educational and professional choices. But, while many of these goals and accomplishments did not set out to trigger a women’s movement , these ladies were stunned by the prejudices they encountered in their own country. It was inevitable that changes were needed and a revolution for the rights of women was born.
 
This book touches on a mere few who dared to roar and pave the way for future women, not only in the act of suffrage, but in the fields of architecture, education, and diplomacy.
 
The book can be purchased on this website and in area bookstores and historical sites for $29.95 plus shipping/handling costs of an additional $3.50. Tax must be added for NC residents only.
