Russian Odyssey
Russian Odyssey is the story of a seeker whose quest leads her back to the unfinished business of a previous lifetime. Unaware of her soul's "hidden agenda," she first visits the Soviet Union as a citizen diplomat. While there, she is inspired to write a book about the Soul of Russia. Through the ensuing interplay between her own soul and the Russian soul, during the 1990s, she ultimately discovers the purpose of her life's journey. Russian Odyssey is the outcome of her decade-long struggle. It is an honest book about the challenges faced by seekers of Truth on the threshold of the Aquarian Age.

This volume represents the best of the new feminist scholarship in twentieth-century U.S. women’s labor history.

The legacy of reinvestment activism is clouded, but Marchiel's detailing of it transforms our understanding of the history and significance of community/bank relations"--Provided by publisher.

Second to None: From 1865 to the present
"Here are women who are shapers of history, as well as its victims. In diaries, letters, speeches, songs, petitions, essays, photographs, and cartoons they describe, rejoice, exhort, complain, advertise, and joke, revealing women's role as community builders in every time and locale and registering their emergence into the public spheres of political, social, and economic life. The documents also demonstrate the value of gender analysis, for women's differences--in age, race, sexual orientation, class, geographical or ethnic origin, abilities or disabilities, and values--are shown to be as important as their commonalities."--Book cover.
