A remarkable work of oral history [and] a fond, provocative testament to a remarkable life.*
A fabulous read about a breed of politician now largely extinct . . . Levine and Thom have crafted a history that brings to life one of the great political personalities of the twentieth century.--*SUSAN SALTER REYNOLDS, Los Angeles Times Abzug was certainly a major player in our change in attitudes in the second part of the past century [and] Suzanne Braun Levine and Mary Thom give us a fascinating glimpse into [an] inspirational but undeniably peculiar period that is receding, all too quickly, into the past.
--CAROLYN SEE, The Washington Post [A] fluid, sharply edited book . . . Abzug was a force of nature, and the stories about her are consistently feisty.--JON DOLAN, Time Out New York Explodes with the energy that Bella Abzug possessed. --DONNA BRAZILE
