Wonderful book

Such a great summary of these 8 women of faith. Their stories are inspirational. Very interesting and readable book. Highly recommend.

Hard Copy Recommended

I chose this Audible version instead of ordering the book in print thinking it would be easier to get into each section if I listened to someone else tell the story. Nope! Too much detail. You either need to go back 30 seconds (constantly) to catch the fullness of the biography and stay invested, or you need to be able to see the names, places, order of events, etc. in print.

Bottom line, listening to the book, I feel lost in detail and wish that I was able to see the page!
