Rezensionen
"Comprehensive and sweeping, this book is a tremendous achievement. Through women's debates over the Equal Rights Amendment, Lehn and Lewis expertly reconstruct a century of women's self-definitions and advocacy. In these pages, we meet familiar and surprising figures whose arguments ground a deeper, richer understanding of equality: that basic American value whose meaning has been anything but simple. The book offers the timely reminder that women have been both unequal citizens and essential drivers of the democratic process. The questions explored here remain as pressing as ever: what do women need to live in America on their own terms, and what will it take for that nation to live up to its own founding ideals of equality and justice?" -Katherine Turk, author of The Women of NOW: How Feminists Built an Organization That Transformed America
