And what, if anything, do we owe these women for daring to do the unthinkable?

Witches, serial killers, gangsters, shoplifters, pirates, con-women, and evil queens--the world loves to label women who misbehave, but what if the villains in question wrote their own tales? And what if, this time, history listened?
