"In this memoir, Geraldine A. Ferraro reflects on her experience as the first & only woman nominated by a major party to run on the presidential ticket. This book reveals the process that led to her nomination as the 1984 Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate & gives a revealing behind-the-scenes look at campaign politics, especially the ruthless criticism directed at her and her family.
Ferraro brings to life the dynamics of the women in Congress and how the different life experiences that they bring to the table affect the policy making process. She also gives a real understanding of the pioneering women, including Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinem, Millie Jeffrey and many others who worked together to make sure that a women was on the Democratic ticket in 1984." |
