Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"Kempker's deeply researched Big Sister: Feminism, Conservation, and Conspiracy in the Heartland is a riveting history of how opposing movements shape one another." --Indiana Magazine of History "Kempker illustrates how, even within groups of women such as liberal and conservative, fissures and factions often prevent a solid coalition. She demonstrates the diversity of opinion within feminist and antifeminist groups in a concise, accessible fashion." --Middle West Review"Kempker provides a fascinating look into the history of conservative women, feminist women, and the relationship between the two groups in the post-WW II US. Highly recommended." --Choice Read more...
