About this Item

A VERY GOOD, clean, tight copy sans rips/tears, stains, discoloration and interior markings. ILLUSTRATED with the full-page, black-and-white drawings of Judith A. Brown. From the author's Introduction: "This book first began ten years ago, when a friend gave me a collection of Dorothea Lange's photographs of American country women. As I looked and looked at those photographs, studying their minute eloquent details, I wanted to hear those women speak, to know their stories. That was the beginning of what evolved this last year into a long trip zizgzagging across the United States (seventeen thousand miles in all), looking for very ordinary women, meeting them, and asking about their lives." 185 pages. GA2.
