    Those first pioneering citizens of the Big Easy were thieves, vagabonds and criminals of all kinds. By the time Louisiana fell under American control, New Orleans had become a city of debauchery and corruption camouflaged by decadence. It was also considered one of the country's most dangerous cities, with a reputation of crime and loose morals. Rampant gambling and prostitution were the norm in nineteenth-century New Orleans, and over one-third of today's French Quarter was considered a hotbed of sin. Tales in this volume include that of the notorious Axeman who plagued the streets of the Crescent City in the early 1900s and Kate Townsend, a prostitute who was murdered by her own lover, a man who later was awarded her inheritance.

Then, meet the women of the ancient world who challenged the status quo by grasping for and holding authority.

Others, though less well-known, will show the different ways it is possible to be powerful. Meet rulers like Empress Lü of China and Hatshepsut of Egypt, rebel leaders such as Boudica of Britain, religious leaders like the Hebrew prophetess Deborah, and more.As listeners will learn, times may have changed since antiquity, but the past has a long reach—and in many ways, our cultural ideas about women and power are surprisingly slow to change.©2020 Audible Originals, LLC (P)2020 Audible Originals, LLC
