Eileen M. Wirth never set out to be a groundbreaker for women in journalism, but if she wanted to report on social issues instead of society news, she had no alternative. Her years as one of the first women reporters at the Omaha World-Herald, covering gender barriers even as she broke a few herself, give Wirth an especially apt perspective on the women profiled in this book: those Nebraskans who, over a hundred years, challenged traditional feminine roles in journalism and subtly but surely changed the world.

The book features remarkable women journalists who worked in every venue, from rural weeklies to TV. They fought for the vote, better working conditions for immigrants, and food safety at the turn of the century. They covered wars from the Russian Revolution to Vietnam. They were White House reporters and minority journalists who crusaded for civil rights. Though Willa Cather may be the only household name among them, all are memorable, their stories affording a firsthand look into the history of journalism and social change.

Okay shirts if they fit. Neck stretches out some with washing.
Decent shirts. It's difficult to buy clothes online because you don't know how they'll fit until they arrive. The small was too small, and the medium is just a little loose. I'm 5'8" and 150 pounds after losing 65 pounds in a year. I work out and have some muscle. Shirts look good on my chest, but the sleeves are a little too long, and the neck is starting to go bacon after just two washings.

Not worth the price.
Color: 2 Pack(black+white), Size: XX-Large
At best these T-Shirt should be in a 4 pack at maybe $10. Quality is not good, they are very thin, very stretchy and the collar does not hold its shape. Would not buy again.
