This wide-ranging history of women's contributions to lexicography is aimed at readers interested in women's roles in writing, the history of English, or the practices of dictionary making. It establishes the importance of women as dictionary patrons, collaborators, readers, compilers, and critics and examines how gender has affected lexicography.
