Good. Size: 8x5x0; No Stock Photos! We photograph every item. 216 pages; light edge wear, bit of highlighting near the beginning; The 20th century has witnessed dramatic changes in women's lives--changes which in turn have transformed society.

Each chapter opens with a vignette offering a glimpse into the life of an individual woman. An index, suggestions for further reading, and chronologies of major events are included.
