Description
Life So Far: A Memoir (Hardcover) by Betty Friedan. In this memoir, the author of THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE--which many see as the beginning of the women's liberation movement--writes of her childhood in Peoria, Illinois, her college years at Smith, and her early struggles as a female reporter and a wife in the '50s. She tells how THE FEMININE MYSTIQUE was written and how the women's movement grew and weathered both internal and external attacks over several decades.
