DAUGHTERS OF THE DESERT Heroic Women - F.E. HC/DJ 2003

By a group of talented authors which include Claire Rudolf Murphy, Meghan Nuttall Sayres, Mary Cronk Farrell, Sarah Conover, and Betsey Wharton, here are eighteen intriguing stories of heroic women from the scriptural writings of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Though seldom educated, women played key roles in the development of these three great faiths, but their lives and contributions are rarely acknowledged. With the help of imagination and careful research, DAUGHTERS OF THE DESERT introduces us to the lives and personalities of women whose faith and strength were vital to the growth of their beliefs, using as starting points passages from the Hebrew and Christian Bibles, and the Koran.
