Summary:
"Since women started working in the trades in the 1970s, very little has been published about their experiences. In this provocative and important book, Kate Braid tells the story of how she became a carpenter in the face of skepticism and discouragement. Told with humour, compassion and courage, Journeywoman is the true story of a groundbreaking woman finding success in a male-dominated field. Kate Braid has had a diverse career including secretary, carpenter, teacher and writer. Her first book of poems Covering Rough Ground won the Pat Lowther Award for best book of poetry by a Canadian woman"--From publisher.
