Gal’s Guide is building an independent women’s history library and is seeking works by women and about women in various career fields. This month we have a list of 20 books about the history of women artists.
UPDATE: The Gal's Guide Library opened March 6, 2020.
Each link goes to our Amazon Smile Charity Wish List.
