    About this audiobook

    Read the stories of

    • Joan of Arc,
    • Susanna Wesley,
    • Hannah More,
    • Sister Maria of Paris,
    • Corrie ten Boom,
    • Rosa Parks,
    • and Mother Teresa!
    • In this highly anticipated follow-up to the enormously successful Seven Men, New York Times bestselling author Eric Metaxas gives us seven captivating portraits of some of the greatest women who ever lived, each of whom changed the course of history by following God’s call upon their lives—now in paperback. 

    Teenaged Joan of Arc followed God’s call and liberated her country, dying a heroic martyr’s death. Susanna Wesley had nineteen children and gave the world its most significant evangelist and its greatest hymn writer, her sons John and Charles. Corrie ten Boom, arrested for hiding Dutch Jews from the Nazis, survived the horrors of a concentration camp to astonish the world by forgiving her tormentors. And Rosa Parks’s deep sense of justice and unshakable dignity and faith helped launch the twentieth-century’s greatest social movement.

    Writing in his trademark conversational and engaging style, Eric Metaxas reveals how the extraordinary women profiled here achieved their greatness, inspiring readers to lives guided by a call beyond themselves

      Well told biographies. The length of each is perfect; enough to tell a complete story without getting bogged down with too much material.

      Fascinating, I learned more about each wonan, especially Rosa Parks. Good to hear!

      It's a good book but less than what I was expecting. Those 7 women had a great importance for society, but the author wasn't so clear about their relationship with God through scripture. However, it's a good book in historical terms.
