Overview
Constance Backhouse's compelling narrative explores the sexist roadblocks they faced in education, law practice, and on the courts. She profiles their different ways of coping, their landmark decisions for women’s rights, and their less stellar records on race. To explore the lives and careers of these two path-breaking women is to venture into a world of legal sexism from a past era. The question for the future becomes: how much of this sexism been relegated to the bins of history, and how much continues?
