In poetry and song, award-winning writer/actor/singer Gerda Stevenson presents the remarkable women from her acclaimed book, Quines: Poems in Tribute to Women of Scotland. History seen through the eyes of women, from Neolithic times to the 21st century – scientists, artists, politicians, a martial-arts warrior, a fish-gutter, a salt-seller and the greatest fishing fly-tier in the world!
