Download or read book Scandalous Women written by Elizabeth Kerri Mahon and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2011-03-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history women have caused wars, defied the rules, and brought men to their knees. The famous and the infamous, queens, divorcées, actresses, and outlaws have created a ruckus during their lifetimes-turning heads while making waves. Scandalous Women tells the stories of the risk takers who have flouted convention, beaten the odds, and determined the course of world events. *When Cleopatra (69 BC-30 BC) wasn't bathing in asses' milk, the last pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty ruled Egypt and forged an important political alliance with Rome against her enemies-until her dalliance with Marc Antony turned the empire against her. *Emilie du Châtelet (1706-1748), a mathematician, physicist, author, and paramour of one of the greatest minds in France, Voltaire, shocked society with her unorthodox lifestyle and intellectual prowess-and became a leader in the study of theoretical physics in France at a time when the sciences were ruled by men. *Long before Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on the bus, Ida B. Wells-Barnett (1862-1928) fought to end discrimination and the terrible crime of lynching and helped found the NAACP, but became known as a difficult woman for her refusal to compromise and was largely lost in the annals of history. *Gertrude Bell (1868-1926) had a passion for archaeology and languages, and left her privileged world behind to become one of the foremost chroniclers of British imperialism in the Middle East, and one of the architects of the modern nation of Iraq.

Download or read book She Devils written by Anne Mcduff and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2009-04-06 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very few women kill. When they do, it is often the tragic outcome of domestic abuse, drug addiction, or mental illness. It is rare for women to kill for pleasure, yet a few of that breed emerge in each generation. At the turn of the last century, with no adoption agencies to protect them, Annie Walters killed unwanted newborns.nbsp;Ninety years later, Aileennbsp;Wuornos sold herself on the highways of Florida, a well-known hunting ground for men looking for prostitutes, until she became the hunter. Rose West exploited lonely girls from nearby children's homes, and Myra Hindley took sickening advantage of the blind trust of Britain in the 1960s where children were safe to walk the streets alone. Beverley Allit and Marybeth Tinning thought that, as a nurse and a mother, the deaths of the children in their care would be seen as tragic accidents. And Karla Homolka exploited a different prejudice. She was prefect, pretty, and so caring as a veterinary nurse. No one ever imagined she could be a sexual predator and killer.

Book Synopsis The Women of Rothschild by : Natalie Livingstone
Download or read book The Women of Rothschild written by Natalie Livingstone and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 549 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Women of Rothschild, Natalie Livingstone reveals the role of women in shaping the legacy of the famous Rothschild dynasty, synonymous with wealth and power. From the East End of London to the Eastern seaboard of the United States, from Spitalfields to Scottish castles, from Bletchley Park to Buchenwald, and from the Vatican to Palestine, Natalie Livingstone follows the extraordinary lives of the Rothschild women from the dawn of the nineteenth century to the early years of the twenty-first. As Jews in a Christian society and women in a deeply patriarchal family, they were outsiders. Excluded from the family bank, they forged their own distinct dynasty of daughters and nieces, mothers and aunts. They became influential hostesses and talented diplomats, choreographing electoral campaigns, advising prime ministers, advocating for social reform, and trading on the stock exchange. Misfits and conformists, conservatives and idealists, performers and introverts, they mixed with everyone from Queen Victoria to Chaim Weizmann, Rossini to Isaiah Berlin, and the Duke of Wellington to Alec Guinness, as well as with amphetamine-dealers, suffragists and avant-garde artists. Rothschild women helped bring down ghetto walls in early nineteenth-century Frankfurt, inspired some of the most remarkable cultural movements of the Victorian period, and in the mid-twentieth century burst into America, where they patronized Thelonious Monk and drag-raced through Manhattan with Miles Davis. Absorbing and compulsive, The Women of Rothschild gives voice to the complicated, privileged, and gifted women whose vision and tenacity shaped history.

These women serial killers committed some of the evilest and shocking murders there are. This book tells their story. If you were to think of a killer, what's the first thing that would come to mind? Is it a hulking figure with bulging biceps and a deep, gravelly voice? Well, what about a kind, sweet old lady? Or what about an attractive young girl who looks like she could be a supermodel? Such images may not match the popular conception of serial killers, but there are indeed killers who fit this profile. Women are less likely to commit murder, yes, but in the small club of female serial killers that exists, there are some rather outrageous characters.Just take the case of the female professional wrestler from Mexico, Juana Barraza. She wrestled other women in the ring by day and wrung their necks by night. There's also the stunning story of Sharon Kinne, who killed her husband, one of her lovers, and one of her lover's wives-one after the other. Not only that-she escaped from prison and hasn't been seen since!

Download or read book Famous Women written by Ivan Scott and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-10-09 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famous women have had a place in history since the formation of the first civilization. They are few in number, some fictitious, like Helen of Troy, some notorious, like Cleopatra whose name and deeds are indelibly fixed in the historical record. In every century, indeed every generation, some few women rise to unmatched degrees of accomplishment and enjoy a general admiration. Their fame is the result of special qualities peculiar to themselves. In almost all cases beauty, or talent, or feminine verve, some significant gift, sets them apart from other women. It is the particular fascination of a unique individual that attracts and holds attention from all the others. In these recent times public adulation given to exceptional women is magnified by means of communication almost revolutionary in scope. All is known about them; all is observed, reported upon, judged and commented on. Their power in many sectors of public life is always remarkable and runs through the full range of human activity, from politics, to science, to the arts and to literature. In these pages twelve women are considered who have had a decisive impact on the times in which they lived. A lack of space in a book of brief compass like this does not allow for a consideration of female exemplars worldwide. In the western world, but a small fraction of earths humanity, the twelve considered here have exerted influence that extends far beyond the parochial origins of their own lives.

Download or read book Monster written by Aileen Wuornos & Christopher Berry-Dee and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-30 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aileen Wuornos was executed in Florida, on the 9th of October, 2002 at the age of 46. She was the 10th woman to be sentenced to death in the USA since the death penalty resumed in 1976. Convicted for the murder of six men, in a two month period, Aileen claimed she acted in self defence however the investigation into these claims was poor and she later retracted her statement announcing to the Supreme Court, "I'm one who seriously hates human life and would kill again." All-too-often female prostitutes have been the victims of male serial killers - the killings of Aileen 'Lee' Wuornos were the inverse of this. She was a child prostitute, fleeing an abusive childhood at the hands of her grandparents, which led straight into a disastrous adulthood of difficult affairs with both men and women. Her metamorphosis from victim to attacker had brutal consequences: a stream of dead men. Following a renewed interest in this woman after the film "Monster", this is her story in her own words.
