An Inspiration for "Seasoned" Women

What a fascinating, inspirational "Celebration of the Female Spirit." Ms Fitzgerald's touching interviews with rugged, sassy, smart, courageous women had me so impressed that I gave each of my "vintage" female friends her book for Christmas. I love the black and white portraits, which reinforce the written word. These are a collection of biographies about how life forms brave, true women, and how these women aged and grew, and became, like fine wine. Elsie Neal, one of the subjects, states: "What I like about my age is that I'm alive and healthy, yet I have no future to worry about. It's wonderful." This echoed how I feel about aging. Gertie Box, another subject, has some wise advice to the "next generation." Kathleen Fitzgerald is a magnificent photographer and her writing is touching, lyrical, and sensitive. This is a book to treasure.

Every Woman Should Read This

This easy read makes you laugh, feel blessed and thankful and makes you take a few minutes to thank God you were born a woman. These lady's stories are thought provoking, engaging and heartwarming. A great gift for any woman in your life.

Divas, Dames & Dolls

What a great photo journalism book depicting the strength and worth of lives spanning the years. A must read for all women.

Divas, Dames & Dolls

WOW! What a perfect gift for a woman of any age - especially anyone going through a difficult time - or someone still searching to find or reinvent themselves. A collection of subjects from all paths of life - great B & W photography - the photos themselves tell a story. The stories and words of advice are important and inspirational. These women are brutally honest and refreshingly comfortable with themselves at this point in their lives.jd

Divas,Dames,and Dolls

A delightful compendium of the photos and lives (in their own words) of women ranging in age from 62 to 102. It is not a "feminist" book but a celebration of the lives of a variety of people who happen to be women. My husband loved it!
