Moving the Mountain: The Women's Movement in America Since 1960

This was the first text on women's history that I read back in Junior high, and I absolutely loved it. Until this point, I dod not realize how complex and developed the women's movement had become by the 1970's. Being born in 1979, I always assumed that feminism was perpetually around. Since it's a safe bet there are more young people (and future generations) who will also believe that way, this book should be required reading for anybody who wants to learn how the women's movement really impacted America. Unfortunately, women's histrpy is underrepresented in public schools and we are paying dearly for the gap in knowllege. My only reservation about this book, is that there are no pictures of the various protests and deomstrations in the 1960's and 1970's. Considering feminism:the career was not really feasabile until the 1980's (monetary and logistic reasons)it neverless would be inspiring to see women (and men) changing the system with what they did have. It still deserves all the stars for a well written and acessable book.
