The Abortionist: A Woman Against the Law Paperback - 1996
by Rickie Solinger
Before Roe vs. Wade, hundreds of thousands of illegal abortions were performed in the U.S. every year. Award-winning author Rickie Solinger tells the revealing story of Ruth Barnett, who performed 40,000 such abortions between 1918 and 1968 and never lost a patient. 8-page photo insert.
From the rear cover
"A brutally frank, often shocking, and yet always uplifting tale about the abortion experience in Portland, Oregon, in the years before Roe v. Wade. . . . Nowhere will you find a better argument for constitutional protection of choice."--Ellen Chesler, author of Women of Valor: Margaret Sanger and the Birth Control Movement in America
