Dorothy Pond's If Women Have Courage... provides a unique perspective on North African archaeology and its social milieu in the interwar period, from one of the few women who participated in field expeditions in that era. Along with its Afterword by Mary Jackes and David Lubell, this book is highly engaging and informative. -- Dr. WILLIAM GREEN, James E. Lockwood Jr. Director, Logan Museum of Anthropology, Beloit College, USA
