Giveaways in Honor of Women’s History Month

Giveaways in Honor of Women’s History Month

I am in the middle of a major thinning of my books and want to give some of them away FREE to anyone who is interested in them. First come, first served.  Some help with postage would be welcome, but not required.

I have sorted the books loosely into general books in Women’s Studies, Literature by Women, Feminist Literary Criticism, and U.S. Women’s History. I put autobiographical writings under literature.  In the past as now, my interest has been in the variety of women’s experiences. Many of the books in each of the categories are by or about African American, Native American and Hispanic women. Some of them are recent and others are classics from the 1970s and 1980s.

In addition to these books, I have some excellent anthologies designed for Women’s Studies and US Women’s History classes. These include a range of articles that have shaped both those fields. And I have early publications of Signs and other Women’s Studies journals.

If you are interested in some of the books, please leave a comment or email me with your address.  I would be glad to give you more information about particular books if you have questions.
