The Head Ladies in Charge is the first ever socially powered book that highlights the accomplishments of women from all walks of life. These Head Ladies in Charge, #HLIC, are making strides in their respective industries, communities, and with their families as they take the world by storm. Many credit their strong faith in God to accomplishing greater greats and higher highs. These women understand what it takes to be successful, not just in their careers but in their businesses and in their personal lives as a whole. "When we came up with the Head Ladies in Charge, we wanted to use our social media platform to spotlight these ladies and help them accomplish their dreams, as well as inspire and empower other women," says Brown, co-founder of Head Ladies in Charge.Created by Che Brown and Trevor Otts, Head Ladies in Charge is the missing link to bringing women together on a global communal scale. Each woman that was selected to be in the Head Ladies in Charge book gave their personal accounts of how they overcame adversity and prevailed to accomplish what they always envisioned for themselves and those around them. "This movement is significant on so many levels because it allows women to reach out to one another while accomplishing their own dreams and leaving the legacies they always envisioned. This book is not just a book of collective stories of success; it's a book about triumphant success that each lady has encountered during her journey of becoming a Head Lady in Charge," adds Otts, co-founder of Head Ladies in Charge.

The Politics of Female Households is the first collection that seeks to integrate ladies-in-waiting into the master narrative of early modern court studies. Presenting evidence and analysis of the multifarious ways in which ‘women above stairs’ shaped the European courts of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, it argues for a re-assessment of their political influence. The cultural agency of ladies-in-waiting is viewed in the reflection of portraiture, pamphlets and masques: their political dealings and patronage are revealed through analysis of letters, family networks, career patterns, gift exchange and household structures, as well as their activities in the fields of intelligence-gathering and espionage. By concentrating on a previously neglected area of female agency, this collection demonstrates clearly that the political climate of Europe was often shaped outside the male-dominated institutions of government and administration. Contributors include: Helen Graham-Matheson, Hannah Leah Crummé, Katrin Keller, Vanessa de Cruz, Birgit Houben, Dries Raeymaekers, Janet Ravenscroft, Una McIlvenna, Rosalind K. Marshall, Oliver Mallick, Cynthia Fry, Nadine Akkerman, Sara J. Wolfson, Fabian Persson, and Jeroen Duindam.
