Industry Reviews "What an extraordinary collection! The editors have compiled a rich selection of powerful texts in a wide variety of genres and have organized them with such imagination that the book is both a sourcebook for exploring the cultural history of women's experience in the U. S. and a remarkably compact, yet quite comprehensive, literary survey. It belongs on every reader's bookshelf." Emory Elliot
"A superb collection representing the full range of American women's writing over four centuries--and a great read besides." Carolyn L. Karcher
