Mexico has lost the 1846 war with the United States, and Upper California now belongs to the Americans. Each day more of them arrive in California, hungry for gold and for land. As her family’s way of life is threatened, Cesa discovers that there’s more to being a woman than she thought–and the sacrifice it requires may be more than she’s willing to make. [detailed...]

Daughters of India: Art and Identity (Art &, Identity)

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Although one in every six women in the world lives in India, most of the Western world knows little about them. Daughters of India is a collection of the stories of twenty Indian women, who range from traditional to modern, repressed to highly innovative, and outcast to entrepreneur. Each story highlights how these women use creative expression as a means of empowerment.

Susan Nathiel
Daughters of Madness: Growing Up and Older with a Mentally Ill Mother

2007 y.
Publisher: Praeger Publishers
Description: June was 9 years old when she came home from school and her schizophrenic mother met her at the door, angrily demanding to know, `Who the hell are you? What are you doing in my house?` In another family, Tess repeatedly saw her mother wait outside church then scream at family friends as the emerged, accusing them of spying on and plotting to kill her. Five-year-old Tess and her 7-year-old brother would just cry, begging their mother to take them home as onlookers stared. These are just two of the stories gathered for this book as psychotherapist Nathiel conducted interviews. The children, now adults, grew up with mentally ill mothers at a time when mental illness was even more stigmatizing than it is today. They are what Nathiel calls `the daughters of madness,` and their young lives were lived on shaky ground. `Telling someone that there`s mental illness in your family, and watching the reaction is not for the faint-hearted,` the therapist says, quoting another`s research. But, she… [detailed...]

Daughters of the Mountain: Women Coal Miners in Central Appalachia (Rural Studies Series of the Rural Sociological Society)

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Much has been written over the years about life in the coal mines of Appalachia. Not surprisingly, attention has focused mainly on the experiences of male miners. In Daughters of the Mountain, Suzanne Tallichet introduces us to a cohort of women miners at a large underground coal mine in southern West Virginia, where women entered the workforce in the late 1970s after mining jobs began opening up for women throughout the Appalachian coalfields. Tallichet`s work goes beyond anecdotal evidence to provide complex and penetrating analyses of qualitative data. Based on in-depth interviews with female miners, Tallichet explores several key topics, including social relations among men and women, professional advancement, and union participation. She also explores the ways in which women adapt to mining culture, developing strategies for both resistance and accommodation to an overwhelmingly male-dominated world. [detailed...]
