In this epic drama of personality and politics, passion and
ambition, courage and betrayal, Marcia Cohen tells the fascinating
inside story of the feminist revolution through the lives of the
women who made it-and were sometimes unmade by it. Focusing on
Betty Friedan, Gloria Steinem, Germaine Greer, and Kate Millett,
"The Sisterhood" is a revealing group portrait of the women whose
ideas and actions have so profoundly transformed us all. This
classic account traces the women's movement from its quiet birth in
the 1960s through its startling triumphs in the 1970s and its
troubled legacy in the 1980s. Today, everything seems possible for
women as they function on an equal plane with men in nearly every
walk of life. But the revolution was hard won. Now the irreverent,
entertaining chronicle that reveals all the well-kept secrets of
feminism, with a thoughtful new foreword by the author, appears in
a special edition that serves as a riveting social history, casting
light on an entire era so important for women as well as men.
