Voices of Women Historians - The Personal, the Political, the Professional (Paperback)

This collection of personal narratives by former officers of the Coordinating Council for Women in History weaves together past and present in women s history, and women in the historical profession. Recording the diverse paths taken to become historians, essays describe how a group of women negotiated the often competing demands of being a woman, a professional, and a political activist during the turbulent 1960s through the challenges of the 1990s."
