The astonishing untold history of the million and a half women who
surrendered children for adoption due to enormous family and social
pressure in the decades before Roe v. Wade. "It would take a heart
of stone not to be moved by the oral histories of these women and
by the courage and candor with which they express themselves." -The
Washington Post "A remarkably well-researched and accomplished
book." -The New York Times Book Review "A wrenching, riveting
book." -Chicago Tribune In this deeply moving and myth-shattering
work, Ann Fessler brings out into the open for the first time the
hidden social history of adoption before Roe v. Wade - and its
lasting legacy. An adoptee who was herself surrendered during those
years and recently made contact with her mother, Ann Fessler
brilliantly brings to life the voices of more than a hundred women,
as well as the spirit of those times, allowing the women to tell
their stories in gripping and intimate detail.
