This collection is distinguished first by its focus on women in struggle over the course of U.S. history and second by its source, the pioneering journal Feminist Studies, which has from its inception sought to link scholarship to activism and has made a major contribution to the development of women's history. The editors have selected many of the strongest pieces published over the last twenty years. CLAIRE GOLDBERG MOSES is professor and chair of the Women's Studies Department at the University of Maryland at College Park, editor and manager of Feminist Studies, and the author of several books on the history of feminist movements.
