Condition: FINE. First printing.

Pat Brown (later governor and father of Jerry Brown) was determined to take her down - and eventually succeeded when she was 61 in having her convicted. She died in 1976, 3 years after Roe vs Wade revolutionized women's choices. SIGNED on the title page and dated in 2017. Many photographs, endnotes. 428 pp. Illustrated endpapers.
