From the Publisher:

The link between mother and daughter has never been expressed as eloquently as in The Story of Mothers & Daughters. An exploration of the powerful connection between mothers and daughters, this book takes a detailed look at these relationships through five cycles: Birth, Growing Up, Separation, Woman to Woman and Aging and Renewal. Following the subjects from the documentary film and capturing many other women nationwide, the book features a wide variety of mothers and daughters in both rural and urban settings, across the lines of race and class.

Through photojournalistic essays by award-winning photographers, The Story of Mothers & Daughters focuses on the women of today, yet it tells a timeless story. The daughter becomes the mother who bears the daughter who becomes the mother. This is a story about life and death, love and hate and the essence of what all women feel and share.
