Her fortune may have come to her by chance, and she is perhaps most famous for her outward signs of wealth, but she was no mere society butterfly. Rather than her extensive collection of jewels and artifacts, her true legacy is the multitude of people she was able to help. with grace, dignity, and her natural capability for genuine friendship.

Entertaining way to learn!

History Chicks is entertaining, well researched, and just all around fun to listen to. I have two degrees in history but never once took a class about women in history. As I listen to each episode, I'm shocked by what I never learned. There's so much to know, understand, and appreciate.

Great Historical Narratots!

I could listen for hours. I actually rewound it to make sure my minds eye had characters in their right family relationship. Major problem is that the story cut off!
