'In 1983, Ginny Foat, California president of the National Organization for Women, was tried and acquitted for the murder of a businessman, which occurred 18 years earlier. The complex case ... made headlines. In this thoughtful analysis, Hawkes, a freelance journalist, exploits the Foat case as a vantage on the contemporary women's movement, showing that it sparked rivalries, gossip and infighting -- the vicious NOW wars, according to feminist Karen DeCrow -- as factions responded in diverse ways to Foat's plight. Drawing on interviews, the author argues that the case brought many feminist weaknesses to the fore.... The case and attendant controversies show that feminists must avoid unrealistic stereotypes, and recognize their strengths and diverse pasts, if the women's movement is to grow, concludes Hawkes.'--Publishers Weekly, 1986.
