Octavo (21.5cm); light green cloth with title in black, in blue pictorial dustwrapper; 4-214pp. Dustwrapper toned; mild handling wear and soiling, light scuffs; extremities slightly rubbed. Faint foxing to textblock edges; ownership signature to ffep, light marginalia throughout. An overall Very Good, sound copy. A Catholic-aligned counterpart to Betty Friedan's contemporary The Feminine Mystique, Sidney Cornelia Callahan searches for middle ground between the oudated, often sexist ideals of the church and the ideals of 1960's feminism, occasionally at odds with the Catholic faith. Callahan explores ways for the Catholic feminist to maintain her religious identity without compromising her role as a modern woman.
