[Michlib-l] women's history sets

[Andrew Cherven]

We have a couple of women's history sets destined for the recycler unless someone would like them. Though they're from the 90s, the historical subject matter makes them still useful. Both sets are in very good condition. Let me know if you'd like either of them.

The young Oxford history of women in the United States c. 1994
Uses personal stories and primary source material to focus on the changes in the lives of American women of all ethnic and economic backgrounds and to discuss the variety and importance of their experiences. Discusses the role of women during World War II and in the postwar years of both expanding and contracting opportunities for them, as many sought their rightful place as full American citizens.
