As a queer, feminist writer who's been doing this work professionally for 15 years — which is about two internet centuries — this book was absolutely fascinating to me. I've been a fan of Ms. Magazine my entire life, and have spent extensive time studying Gloria Steinem and her connection to the resurrection of modern day Wonder Woman. This book took me so much deeper! It's an expansive source of primary history, full of writing in the moment for five decades of feminist activism. I have a feeling all my colleagues will be getting this for Christmas! 

Thank you to NetGalley and Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review.

50 Years of Ms. is an absolutely fascinating collection that should be required reading. We should all see how far we've come, and also how far we still need to go. I loved flipping through the various articles, reading many of the greatest feminist icons in their own words, at the time when they were making the most impact. Highly recommend!

Description
A celebration of Ms.—the most startling, most audacious, most norm-breaking of the magazine's groundbreaking pieces on women, men, politics (sexual and otherwise), marriage, family, education, work, motherhood, and reproductive rights, as well as the best of the magazine’s fiction, poetry, and letters

Just as the description promises, this book collects essays and more from over the past 50 years. I liked combing through the pieces as seeing the verbiage of the day, advice, and issues, many of which resonates today. All told, this is a great coffee table or library book.
