In this Number 1 'New York Times' bestseller, renowned news correspondent Cokie Roberts examines the nature of women's roles, from mother to mechanic, sister to soldier, through the illuminating lens of her personal experience. Each essay introduces us to several of the fascinating women Roberts has encountered during the course of her reporting career. Roberts also relates moving anecdotes about the women in her life, like her mother, former Congresswoman Lindy Boggs. These intimate portraits of women become the springboard for more extensive discussions of women's issues, such as women's position in politics, business, motherhood, and marriage.
Sensitive, straightforward, and perceptive, 'We Are Our Mother's Daughters' celebrates the diversity of choices and perceptives available to women today and affirms the bond of females solidarity - a vital, powerful interconnection among all women, whatever their backgrounds.
