Tracy dawson let me be frank5/31/2023 Her book has a wit that suggests it was written by a man since everyone knows women aren't this funny.” - Kay Cannon, writer, producer, director (the Pitch Perfect films, Cinderella). Tracy has such a gift for storytelling and making history leap off the page. “This book will surprise, astonish, and hopefully anger you on the lengths women have had to go to pursue their dreams. In a collection that Buzzfeed calls a "witty, sometimes infuriating, wholly inspiring look at the lengths that women had to go to," Let Me Be Frank tells the stories of women throughout history who defied social constraint by disguising themselves as men in order to gain access to opportunities otherwise denied them.
