Recs if you like American Indian Stories (Modern Library Torchbearers)...

(Auto)Biographies, memoirs, and stories of influential women, both well and lesser known

Just a collection of classics written by women, this is a diverse reading experience with voices of women from across time and boarders.

Research done with ISFDB, folklore and mythology included I am currently building this list based off of the debut by year list, which only includes authors who've published six entries... I think this limitation is arbitrary, but I currently lack the means to really dig into the weeds with them... please forgive me :bow:

Currently Missing: Winifred Graham F.E. Penny (Fanny Emily Farr Penny)

C.B. Dignam - technically, no one knows if they were a man/woman/1900-gender, but I think that ambiguity would've rendered them for inclusion here ... if there had been any books of theirs listed on goodreads
