Three Saints: Women Who Changed History: Genevieve of Paris, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila

Most biographies of women saints tend to be brief summaries extolling their virtues, with a slight mention of their greater contributions to the faith and the world in general. Author Joan Williams has taken the lives of three women saints (Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, and Genevieve of Paris) and provides a look into their lives and influence and sheds light on their neglected stories.
