Her years as one of the first women reporters at the Omaha World-Herald covering gender barriers even as she broke a few herself give Wirth an especially apt perspective on the women profiled in this book: those Nebraskans who over a hundred years challenged traditional feminine roles in journalism and subtly but surely changed the world.The book features remarkable women journalists who worked in every venue from rural weeklies to TV. They fought for the vote better working conditions for immigrants and food safety at the turn of the century. They covered wars from the Russian Revolution to Vietnam. They were White House reporters and minority journalists who crusaded for civil rights. Though Willa Cather may be the only household name among them all are memorable their stories affording a firsthand look into the history of journalism and social change.
