As a lifelong feminist, she has a fascinating perspective on the modern women?s movement, and the contribution which women of her generation hae made to it. As a mother and grandmother, she writes movingly of the changes she has seen in family life, in relationships between men and women, and women and women, and in attitudes to the elderly. And as a journalist of nearly sixty years she offers a courageous critique of the media ? as it was, as it is, and as it might become. A wonderful blend of reminiscence and controversy, this is the story of a woman of determination and compassion, one of the most influential journalists and campaigners of our time.* This is a FINE copy of the 1st./1st. fnl. with absolutely minimal shelf wear.*
