Harriet Tubman definitely does not fall into the category of awesome women I'd never heard of, but the anniversary of her death was yesterday and I feel she deserves a spotlight. Tubman is most well known for being a conductor for the Underground Railroad but she was also a Union nurse, spy, and general during the civil war, founder of the Home for the Aged, and a suffragist. 

This month we're celebrating Women's History Month and I'm starting things off with the unbelievable story of Wilma Rudolph in "Wilma Unlimited" by Kathleen Krull and David Diaz.
