Title
The Story of Jane: The Legendary Underground Feminist Abortion Service,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In the four years before the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision, most women determined to get abortions had to subject themselves to the power of illegal, unregulated abortionists...But a Chicago woman who happened to stumble across a secret organization codenamed 'Jane' had an alternative. Laura Kaplan, who joined Jane in 1971, has pieced together the histories of the anonymous (here identified only by pseudonyms), averagesounding women who transformed themselves into outlaws.'Cleveland Plain Dealer 'The Story of Jane is a piece of women's history in step with feminist theory demanding that women tell their own stories. It serves to remind people of an important and often overlooked moment in the women's rights movement.'Seattle Weekly 'Laura Kaplan's The Story of Jane is the first book to chronicle this controversial sliver of history, and it is a fascinating, if partisan, closeup of the group.'Newsday '[Kaplan] draws on her personal recollections and interviews with Jane members and clients and the doctors who performed the abortions to provide a wellwritten, detailed history of this radical group.'Publisher's Weekly 'Weaving together the voices and memories of her former coworkers, Kaplan recounts how the group initially focused on counseling women and helping them find reliable, reasonably priced doctors....Kaplan's account of this remarkable story recaptures the political idealism of the early '70s...23 years after Roe vs. Wade, the issues and memories raised by the books are close and all too relevant.'K Kaufmann, San Francisco Chronicle 'Laura Kaplan's The Story of Jane is the first book to chronicle this controversial sliver of history, and it is a fascinating, if partisan, closeup of the group....The Story of Jane succeeds on the steam of Kaplan's gripping subject and her moving belief in the power of smallscale change.'Cynthia Leive, New York Newsday 'During the four years before the Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision legalized abortion in 1973, the 100 members of Jane helped some 11,000 women end their pregnancies....There is more in this remarkable book that will further raise eyebrows....Kaplan's engrossing tales of the quiet courage of the women who risked their reputations and freedom to help others may remind many readers of other kinds of outlaws who have resisted tyranny throughout history.'Chicago SunTimes
