Synopsis: Responding to the women's movement and spread of feminism in SF, this book lists 855 books (novels, collections, or anthologies) written by 422 women authors between 1753 & 1982. A few mistakes (e.g. the oldest book listed, from 1692, is by Gabriel Daniel, who's actually a man). Focuses on science fiction, omitting most fantasy, horror, etc., and misses several less-known women authors. Nevertheless, a fairly comprehensive checklist for that date.
