Why read it?
1 author picked Radio Girls as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Stories about women in radio are few and I was thrilled to find Radio Girls. Although it’s fiction, there is a real sense that the author did their research combining fact with fiction in the very early days of the BBC. In 1926, American-born Maisie Musgrave meets the challenges of rising from a secretary in a predominated male industry to become an unexpected heroine at a time when very few women were given the chance.
From Raven's list on strong women who succeed in a male-dominated world.
