Rich in detail, filled with fascinating characters, and panoramic in its sweep, this magnificent, comprehensive work tells for the first time the complete story of the American woman from the Pilgrims to the 21st-century In this sweeping cultural history, Gail Collins explores the transformations, victories, and tragedies of women in America over the past 300 years. As she traces the role of females from their arrival on the Mayflower through the 19th century to the feminist movement of the 1970s and today, she demonstrates a boomerang pattern of participation and retreat. In some periods, women were expected to work in the fields and behind the barricades—to colonize the nation, pioneer the West, and run the defense industries of World War II. In the decades between, economic forces and cultural attitudes shunted them back into the home, confining them to the role of moral beacon and domestic goddess. Told chronologically through the compelling true stories of individuals whose lives, linked together, provide a complete picture of the American woman’s experience, Untitled is a landmark work and major contribution for us all.

I am a Gail Collins fan. I read her column in the New York Times, and find it hilarious, witty, pithy, informal, with always the well-turned phrase. Not so this book. I would not have known it was written by the same person, so hence, my disappointment. This book is plain-spoken, and soldiers on through all the fascinating women in a work-woman-like way. What happened to the Gail I am accustomed to? This book contains barely an hint of her extraordinary sense of humor.Having described my disappointment, I will note that the book is a worthwhile slog. It took me several months to get through, a bit at a time. It provides a useful broad sweep of women's history in the USA , and identifies some women worth reading more about at a later date. For this reason, I called it an encyclopedia, with just enough information to fill in the cast of characters and the main events.If you are looking for a rather plodding but competent summary, without Gail's glorious, confidential "between you and me" writing style in the New York Times, this is a book worth reading. Think of it as a reference book. Don't read it when you are sleepy, and read it in small doses.
