From an impressive sisterhood of YA writers comes an edge-of-your-seat anthology of historical fiction and fantasy featuring a diverse array of daring heroines.

Crisscross America — on dogsleds and ships, stagecoaches and trains — from pirate ships off the coast of the Carolinas to the peace, love, and protests of 1960s Chicago. Join fifteen of today’s most talented writers of young adult literature on a thrill ride through history with American girls charting their own course. They are monsters and mediums, bodyguards and barkeeps, screenwriters and schoolteachers, heiresses and hobos. They're making their own way in often-hostile lands, using every weapon in their arsenals, facing down murderers and marriage proposals. And they all have a story to tell.

レビュー

Brassy bank robbers, brave trailblazers, and ball-busting débutantes make all sorts of noise in this collection of 15 stories...Each individual story is thoroughly researched, and each includes an author's note explaining the context. The heroines are tough and memorable and full of heart, and the concept is irresistible. Stock up—this one will practically sell itself.
—Booklist (starred review)

Fifteen notable YA authors come together to write enthralling short historical narratives starring ambitious young women...Each entry is strong on its own, and the characters’ voices are unique in each tale. Teens will be hard-pressed to choose a favorite, and even those who are not fans of historical fiction might find a genre-blended tale worth reading. Overall, the pacing for each selection is steady, and the conclusions have enough punch to make the characters and their situations memorable. A must-buy. This collection will be sure to spark an interest in anyone who wants to indulge in strong and introspective young women living in a variety of historical time periods.
—School Library Journal (starred review)

These energizing, adventurous, and occasionally somber tales will readily please fans of historical fiction.
—Publishers Weekly

There is range and balance in tone, voice, and approach, a challenge for anthologies. Placing the stories in historical order allows readers to move smoothly through, and a helpful author's note follows each selection. Readers of historical fiction and adventure need look no further.
—Kirkus Reviews

Fifteen short stories by notable YA female writers move across the U.S. in geography and time, from a seafaring adventure in 1710 to the search for gold in Alaska in 1898 to the civil rights movements of the 1960s...this anthology moves skillfully between humor and thoughtfulness as it traverses the many paths taken by women throughout American history.
—Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"A Tyranny of Petticoats" provides adventure and entrée to other times and worlds. This anthology doesn't just spotlight the experience of white girls—it also emphasizes the roles of girls and women of color.
—Star Tribune

These are adventurous, historical, tough, and memorable heroes…and they are all female. This title would be a great historical fiction addition to school libraries with its strong plotlines and strong female characters.
—School Library Connection

Overall this collection serves not just to entertain and educate young adults. It also seeks to place their own experiences on a spectrum of teen contributions to history. And, at its best, “A Tyranny of Petticoats” motivates young readers to pick up where these characters left off and to keep living — and creating — their own stories.
—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

No two stories are alike. No two characters either. No two settings for that matter, as these stories crisscross the continent. But if you’re looking for role models for young women, you’re bound to find something here to like.
—B&N Teen Blog

5つ星のうち5.0 Excellent short story collection

This was a very good collection of short stories for those interested in history. It also showcased strong females which is sometimes hard to find. I also really enjoyed the fact that they included transgender and lesbian issues. If you are looking for something that is entertaining; I would definitely reccomend this book.

5つ星のうち5.0 One Of The Best Anthologies I Have Read!
2016年12月20日に英国でレビュー済み
Amazonで購入
This was fantastic and without a doubt one of my favourite anthologies I have now read. I loved the diversity within it. There was not only a diverse collection of stories and settings but also races, cultures and sexualities, it was so refreshing to read! I enjoyed each and every story and the little pieces of insight into the characters and lives whose stories were told. I hadn't previously read anything from many of the authors included in this collection but after reading it, I am very excited to check out more of their work!

There wasn't really a single story I didn't enjoy but I think my top favourites were: 'Pearls' by Beth Revis, 'The Legendary Garrett Sisters' by Y.S. Lee, 'The Colour of the Sky' by Elizabeth Wein and 'Bonnie and Clyde' by Saundra Mitchell.

5つ星のうち3.0 Pirates, Ghosts, Robbers and more
2016年10月9日に英国でレビュー済み

A Tyranny of petticoats is an all female written anthology about badass females. The 15 stories consist of Pirates, Assassins, Ghosts and Robbers whilst covering relevant American history such as Gold mining, the slave trade and war.

The stories are written in historical order, starting from 1710-1968. These are my ratings for each story:

Mother Carey's table by J.Anderson Coats ⭐.5 stars

The Journey by Marie Lu ⭐⭐⭐stars

Madeleine's choice by Jessica Spotswood ⭐⭐⭐.5 stars

El Destinos by Leslye Walton ⭐⭐⭐stars

High Stakes by Andrea Cremer ⭐⭐⭐ stars

The Red Ravenue Ball by Caroline Tung Richmond ⭐⭐stars

Pearls by Beth Revis ⭐⭐⭐.5 stars

Gold in the roots of grass by Marissa Meyer ⭐⭐⭐⭐stars

The Legendary Garnet Girls by Y.S.Lee ⭐⭐⭐stars

The colour of the sky by Elizabeth Wein ⭐⭐⭐ stars

Bonnie and Clydebank by Sundra Mitchell ⭐⭐⭐stars

Hard times by Catherine Longshore ⭐⭐⭐stars

City of Angels by Lindsay Smith ⭐⭐⭐.5 stars

Pulse of the Panthers by Kekla Magoon ⭐⭐⭐ stars

The whole world is watching by Robin Talley ⭐⭐stars

I wanted to read this collection of short stories as I had heard great things about it. This book should have been ideal for me, it's feminist historical fiction. Sadly this didn't deliver, none of the stories blew me away. In actual fact I have a hard time remembering what the stories were about. Some of the stories felt like they were an excerpt from a novel, some felt rushed and others under developed.

However,I am glad I got to read this as I get to explore authors that I have not read before and got to sample their work and see if I get on with their writing styles.

The book also has a short note from the author as to why they picked the era, why they contributed to the anthology and so on. I definitely want to explore more novels with American history such as the gold mining and slavery thanks to these authors.

Overall I rated this 3 out of 5 stars

I had such high expectations but I ended up skipping through this as about 75% I did not like. This sounded so good but it really did not deliver.

5つ星のうち3.0 Some great hits, lot of misses
2016年7月5日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

This collection of historical short stories is set in America, spans from 1710-1968, and features a diverse cast of female main characters written by a wide range of YA writers. It's pretty cool, and there were a few stories I enjoyed tremendously.

The stories deal with female oppression in society and star young women who break out of the mold of their assigned roles. They're pretty cool. Cross-dressing bank robbers, Civil War spies, controllers of life and death, ghost-seeing farm-rescuers, etc.

As to be expected in any anthology, some stories were huge hits with me and others were not. The misses seemed to be a little higher than the hits. But what stories I did like, I liked a lot. Despite being written by YA authors, several of the stories felt more adult than YA. And a few just felt really aimless and out of place. It's hard to tell who the real target audience is for this anthology.

There are a lot of uncomfortable situations in the book to put our heroines in danger, but some seemed ridiculously unnecessary. Robin Talley's short story about 1960's protesters was the last one in the anthology and had the Black main character get clubbed by a police officer as a plot device for her white girlfriend to save her. Left a very, very bad taste in my mouth, and it was an awful way to end an otherwise fun book.

Stories I did like a lot:
- El Destinos by Leslye Walton (Three Fates from Greek mythology reincarnated as Latina sisters in Texas)
- Pearls by Beth Revis (trigger warning for implied rape - Chicago socialite escapes marriage to become a teacher in Wyoming)
- Bonnie and Clyde by Saundra Mitchell (girl dresses up as male bank robber to play Robin Hood for her family and neighbors)
- Lindsay Smith's City of Angels (Casablanca-ish F/F about an aspiring actress and playwright meeting in a factory during WW2. And if you've seen Casablanca, you know how this ends, so heads up)
