A Different Woman

A dated book, but nonetheless, a great read. Howard, a reporter for Life Magazine, interviews handfuls of women across the country while on varied assignments. Her purpose is to gather where women are out (it is the early 1970s). The author's voice comes out as original and educated, with the wit only a succesful NYC girl could have. No woman (or man) would take offense at the readings here ... but we can all understand better our current society by reading this slice of Americana!! Besides the historical perspective, you'll be sure to advance your vocabulary and have a number of hearty laughs. Makes me hungry for more Jane Howard.
