Women Who Lived Through It All

Smart Women loves to spotlight new publications by female authors! This book by accomplished journalist Gail Collins looks like a must-read. When Everything Changed: The Amazing Journey of American Women from 1960 to the Present chronicles the extraordinary transformation of the political and personal spheres for women in this country. Described as "a masterful storyteller," Collins enlivens her work by intertwining archival research with over 100 interviews with regular women to capture the memories of those who lived through it all.

Should you check this one out? If you:
a) are a woman
b) live in America
c) have been living and working after 1960
then it's probably worth a look!
