The book consists of 175 pages of short stories. There is even an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.achieveanything.ca\/\">organization<\/a> (Achieve Anything) promoting women to embrace industries and disciplines out side their scope in history.<\/p>\n<p>As to Muir&#8217;s book, with or without photos included, photography would certainly have improved the historical aspect by showing the people, machines, and times covered.
