The listing, UNFORGETTABLE WOMEN OF THE CENTURY(1999, Hardcover) has ended.
This 8 14" X 11" hardback book with jacket has 159 pages. Very good condition. BEAUTIFUL PICTURES. ****The phrase American Century came from Henry Luce, the late founder of the publishing company that spawned People Magazine. And as perhaps the most read chronicler of the new pop culture and of the emergence of women, the publication felt called upon to assemble this keepsake collection of the most memorable female personalities and some of the great photographs of these dramatic decades. It was a time in which women at long last got, in the word of Aretha Franklin, R E S P E C T. Of course there was a price. Ask Tammy Wynette or Elizabeth Taylor about D I V O R C E. Here among the triumphs and scandals are the diva-esque voices that could shatter glass - and glass ceilings - and the indelible faces that mellowed and moved our world.*****
