New Hidden Women review
Stewart’s advocacy is powerful and practical and is synchronized perfectly with the voices of today calling out for change."
"With multi-disciplinary evidence and a persuasive voice,
Stewart calls out the domineering historical legacies of conquerors and of religion that have sought to silence the stories of women. She argues elegantly for women without the shrill overtones of desperate anger that conservative critics might dismiss. Stewart’s tone will appeal to all readers of history as she celebrates Celtic women and connects their legacy with present-day social issues. Stewart, not content to merely criticize, offers solutions to the problems women face because of historical misrepresentations, inaccuracies, and the inheritance of patriarchy.
