Why read it?
1 author picked The Woman's Bible as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

It contains thorough and thoughtful commentary on the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy (part one) and Joshua to Revelation (part two). 369 pages in all.

(And it will depress the hell out of you to see where we still are 123 years later.)
From Chris' list on critical of religion's view of women.
