"[A] paean to feminism and the solidarity of womenkind. . . . This book is a celebration of women in their various roles: mother, sister, civil rights advocate, consumer advocate, first-class mechanic, politician—which Roberts' own mother once was."

—Washington Post

"The perfect combination of powerful feelings and a modulated style."

— Los Angeles Times

From the much beloved Cokie Roberts comes a revised and expanded tenth-anniversary paperback edition of the #1 New York Times Bestseller We Are Our Mothers' Daughters—complete with new profiles.

In this collection of warm and insightful essays, Roberts explores the many roles women play through the stories of American women, past and present:

  • Inspirational Stories for Women: Biographical sketches of women in roles from politician and soldier to mechanic and scientist, revealing the common thread of caretaking that connects them all.
  • Women in Politics: An inside look from the woman who grew up in the halls of Congress, exploring how electing women makes a real difference for America's families.
  • The Bonds of Sisterhood: A deeply personal and poignant chapter on life after losing an older sister, and the circles of female friendship that provide unwavering support.
  • Work-Life Balance for Women: A clear-eyed look at the 'mommy wars' and the constant, everyday choices women make in a world that has changed, and a world that has stayed the same.
