{"product_id":"cayugas-daughters-michael-turback-9781483931852","title":"Cayuga's Daughters: 100 Notable Women of Cornell","description":"As late as the 1920s, when Eleanor Roosevelt's daughter Anna enrolled in Cornell's School of Agriculture, her grandmother complained that \"Girls who went to college were very apt to be 'old maids' and become 'bookworms, ' a dire threat to any girl's chance of attracting a husband.\" In today's higher education landscape, when women earn fully half the degrees granted by Cornell in every category, this modest volume reminds readers of those devoted daughters of their Alma Mater whose cumulative strength pushed open the door for women in intellectual life, in politics, in industry - and includes the remarkable and influential who followed in their footsteps. It is not meant to provide a comprehensive nor complete academic reference, but rather an accessible distillation that recognizes many of the authentic heroines we already know, and introduces more than a few we ought to know.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Turback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1483931854\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781483931852\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/02\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.29d","brand":"Michael Turback","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43996269936895,"sku":"9781483931852","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6d31f9af-da0f-4d22-b16b-92cdd024f333.jpg?v=1683340721","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cayugas-daughters-michael-turback-9781483931852","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
