Condición: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Unforgettable Nevada Women is the Southern Nevada Women's History Project's third volume dedicated to recognizing the contributions of noteworthy Nevada women to the development and enrichment of the Silver State. Through interviews, public records, and private papers shared by friends and family, and collected historical accounts from newspapers and oral histories, volunteers have gathered together these stories of one hundred remarkable women.Nevada has been home to diverse and dynamic women, including the first woman owner and operator of a hotel-casino, the founder of Weight Watchers, the designer of the famous 'Welcome to Las Vegas' sign, and a nun whose Angel Bread saved a much-needed hospital from closing. Also included are stories of singers, dancers, actresses, community activists, government leaders, and a world expert on organic chemistry. Within these pages are also accounts of educators, artists, an internationally known hypnotist, Native American crusaders, and a judge. Just as Skirts that Swept the Desert Floor and Steadfast Sisters of the Silver State each chronicled the lives of one hundred amazing women in Nevada history, Unforgettable Nevada Women offers a tribute to the achievements of one hundred women who have made a lasting impact on Nevada life.
