She looks closely at these lives and wonders at both the hard-earned freedoms and the painful, unanticipated consequences of historic change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs a scholar of family, gender, and identity, Stewart (sociology, U. of Nevada) sets her experiences and those of her family members in the context of changing female roles over a century of American life;  but she did not write this book as an academic treatise (no references, bibliography, or index) but rather as a thoughtful personal history. Born in 1945, she was married and divorced three times, brought up children on her own, and became a college professor. As a young woman she had the wits and the drive to interview both of her grandmothers, and she incorporates their stories with her mother's, her daughters', and her own. The included family photos speak volumes. * Book News, Inc. *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface Acknowledgments Introduction I Constructing Childhood II If It Feels Good . . .
