Isabella of Castile & Leon, 1450-1504
Summary
Isabella has been called a genius, crusader, patriot - and bigot. She brought law and order, founded universities and libraries, patronised the arts and sciences - while behind her lay the shadow of the dreaded inquisition. Hers was a remarkable life of cruelty tempered by enlightenment.

Amy Johnson, 1903 - 1941: The Famous Women Series
Summary
Amy Johnson's greatest achievement was her solo flight to Australia, made within a year of her obtaining a full pilot's licence. (At the time she was the only woman in the world to hold a full ground-engineer's licence.) In the remote jungles and islands of south-east Asia, her flying ability and engineering knowledge enabled her to complete the flight. Throughout her life she fought anti-feminine prejudice, becoming a major pioneer in aviation. Her tragic and mysterious early death in an air crash helped to turn her life into an aviation legend.
