SOUL SISTERS is one of the many ways in which Ambassador Suzan Johnson Cook hopes to reach women in need of such a system.

This book, from one of the world's leading experts in equality and former Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom, includes inspirational stories from women of all backgrounds who have overcome life's obstacles and become even stronger because of their struggles.
