Mothers, Sisters, Daughters

Gateley & Mattucci

Portraits of 22 extraordinary women whose lives have made, and continue to make, a lasting impact on our world. 

In word, picture, and poetry, bestselling author Edwina Gateley and artist Sandra Mattucci show us women—saints, mystics, and martyrs; reformers, writers, and environmentalists—who have all made the world a better place by pursuing their dreams and visions, often against enormous odds, including;

• Hildegard of Bingen, saint and mystic
• Emily Dickinson, American poet
• Rachel Carson, environmentalist
• Dorothy Stang, Catholic sister and martyr
• Aung San Suu Kyi, political leader of Myanmar
• Wangari Muta Maathai, Nobel Peace Prize winner
