Product Description
From Amazon.com
The story of how the daughter of a fundamentalist Church of God preacher became a nurse-midwife in Harlem, the director of the Planned Parenthood office in Dayton, Ohio, and later president of national Planned Parenthood from 1978 to 1992 would make a fascinating book even if abortion and reproductive rights had not become one of the hot-button issues of the last decade. Since the 1992 Presidential election Americans seem to have arrived at an uneasy truce in the right to life wars. Wattleton's absorbing, sometimes preachy memoir gives an account of those wars from the front lines.
From Library Journal

What an amazing life!,
By cool_blue_reason (Dayton, OH) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life on the Line (Paperback)
I read this book as an assignment for an Urban Affairs class in college. The size of the book was daunting, at first. However, it was very easy to read. There was a bit of a lull in the middle portion, but overall was an excellent story.
