Phyllis Schlafly and Grassroots Conservatism: A Woman’s Crusade (Politics and Society in Modern America, 38) by Donald T. Critchlow
Requirements: .PDF reader, 1.2 MB
Overview: Longtime activist, author, and antifeminist leader Phyllis Schlafly is for many the symbol of the conservative movement in America. In this provocative new book, historian Donald T. Critchlow sheds new light on Schlafly’s life and on the unappreciated role her grassroots activism played in transforming America’s political landscape.
Based on exclusive and unrestricted access to Schlafly’s papers as well as sixty other archival collections, the book reveals for the first time the inside story of this Missouri-born mother of six who became one of the most controversial forces in modern political history. It takes us from Schlafly’s political beginnings in the Republican Right after the World War II through her years as an anticommunist crusader to her more recent efforts to thwart same-sex marriage and stem the flow of illegal immigrants.
