520    Adventures of eight inspiring women of the twentieth 
       century. Mary Gibson Henry risked her life following her 
       passion for new botanical species. During the Civil War, 
       Katharine Wormeley worked aboard hospital ships and helped
       to save the lives of many sick and wounded soldiers. With 
       a promise and a dollar and a half, Mary McLeod Bethune 
       opened a school for African American girls in Daytona 
       Beach, Florida, in 1904, at a time when schools were 
       segregated. Award-winning author Penny Colman offers a 
       compelling collection of true stories about eight women 
       who were bold enough to confront obstacles and take risks 
       in the pursuit of their goals. This is a book that 
       celebrates the intelligence, fortitude, and courage of 
       women.
