Moving the Mountain: The Women's Movement in America Since 1960 Paperback - 1999
by Flora Davis
First line
The turbulent, affluent, optimistic 1960s provided an unusually hospitable climate for feminism.
From the rear cover
"Moving the Mountain tells the story of the struggles and triumphs of thousands of activists who achieved "half a revolution" between 1960 and 1990. In this book, Flora Davis presents a grass-roots view of the small steps and giant leaps that have changed laws and institutions as well as the assumptions, prejudices, and unspoken rules governing a woman's place in American society. Looking at every major feminist issue from the point of view of the participants in the struggle, Moving the Mountain conveys the excitement, the frustration, and the creative chaos of feminism's second wave."--BOOK JACKET.
