FIVE STARS***** BRAVO GLORIA ALLRED

A MUST READ FOR ALL***** GLORIA ALLRED HAS ACHIEVED WORLD RECOGNITION FOR HER PURSUIT OF JUSTICE AND EQUALITY***** HER BOOK SHOULD BE 'REQUIRED READING' FOR ALL.

Gloria is one of the top lawyers in America.

This book was very inspirational and a interesting read. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Gloria is a very strong woman who is determined to fight for justice. She's a breath of fresh air. Her book was excellent.

Inspirational

Gloria shows her true colors. She's a woman who isn't afraid to fight, to inspire, to lead and to express her opinion on many women's civil issues. I recommend this book to every person. Sometimes the causes that we fight for hurt society but sometimes they help individuals who otherwise would not have advantages to have their day in court. Freedom is such a delicate matter but not approaching issues with fervent gusto is being ignorant. Gloria Allred's best message in this book is don't be ignorant.

Outstanding source of legalities

Excellent source of information! A wealth of knowledge! I would recommend this book to anyone who is considering to seek the assistance of a lawyer.

Re: Well-written memoir

I read Gloria Allred's book FIGHT BACK AND WIN with great interest. I have always admired Gloria because she stands up for those who are traditionally not empowered in society, including women and children, and she's been very involved in fighting for victims' rights. I thought the book was very well written and the part on Gloria's childhood and upbringing in working-class Philadelphia was very interesting. Anyone who is interested in becoming an attorney because they want to make a difference in somone's life will enjoy reading this book.
