A review by aboone
Who Cooked the Last Supper?: The Women's History of the World by Rosalind Miles

challenging dark informative slow-paced

3.75

Informative, critical, work on an important topic. As much as I admire the book, it was a difficult read because of the intense violence, oppression, and dismal treatment of women it reports on.
