Description
"The Readers' Companion to U.S. Women's History is a landmark work, the first major volume to cover women's experience in the United States from the earliest times with a truly inclusive consciousness. Its more than 400 articles are interpretive as well as narrative, combining investigation of the past with in-depth descriptions of women's day-to-day lives. Articles consider such questions as: How has child care changed from colonial times to the present? What role did women play in the Harlem Renaissance? What impact did the National Origins Act have on women? How have women been instrumental in the labor movement?" "Written by more than 300 contributors selected from many fields and areas of expertise, The Reader's Companion to U.S. Women's History is a collaboration of renowned historians and feminist pioneers. This is the definitive companion for every-one interested in U.S. history and women's studies - enlightening, surprising, and thought-provoking."--BOOK JACKET
