Using the concept of the life cycle as the organizing principle, the authors examine the lives of American women from the seventeenth century to the present. Their focus is on the women themselves and the way they have evaluated their experiences, relationships and choices at each stage (childhood, adolescence, young adulthood, middle age and old age). Lengthy documentary selections are included from the diaries and letters of the women themselves. They were chosen to reflect the variety of female experience and take into account differences in social class, race, ethnicity, religion and regional background, as well as personality, temperament and talents. Originally published in 1981 by Little, Brown and Company. No library descriptions found. |
