March is Women's History Month. To celebrate the accomplishments of women and female-identifying people, we will be highlighting recent articles and recommended books "devoted to the achievements of a diverse ­gallery of women, heroes every one." Look for the social media tag #HBWomensHistoryMonth on Facebook.com/TheHornBook and @HornBook on Twitter as we share posts every weekday through the month of March, and this roundup on Fridays.
