Washington, D. C.: National Geographic Books, 2001. First Edition, First Printing. Fine Hardcover in a Fine Dust Jacket. New/New.

No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality.. In this brief pictorial survey of 300 years of women's history in the United States, the author has selected some handsome reproductions of paintings, such as Copley's elegant portrait of Mercy Otis Warren, as well as some disturbing photographs, such as shots of the tragic Triangle Shirtwaist factory fire.

Most of the pictures are full-page and full-color, and no other recent pictorial work covers such a broad range of history. Lucey portrays many different roles and lifestyles, showing the solid achievements but not ignoring some grim realities: a young slave woman offered as a raffle prize, immigrants living in crowded slums, the harsh conditions of prairie life, and women serving as soldiers or nurses in wartime.

A worthwhile addition to public library and women's studies collections.
