"Mohr makes it abundantly clear that Supreme Court decisions of the 1970s were not a modern weakening of moral standards but a return to what Americans believed and practiced a hundred years ago."--The Christian Century, "A fascinating book which sets to rest a number of preconceptions on the subject. Easy to read and yet hard-hitting."--Marlette Rebhorn, ustin Community College "Should be an eye-opener to those who think that religious objections were at the root of anti-abortion legislation and equally to those who think that abortion has been a matter of life and death."--Carl N. Degler, Stanford University "A superb example of the way history can inform a current contentious controversy."-- Journal of American History "Mohr makes it abundantly clear that Supreme Court decisions of the 1970s were not a modern weakening of moral standards but a return to what Americans believed and practiced a hundred years ago."-- The Christian Century "An altogether lucid review of American abortion policy in the 19th century."--Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, The New York Times, "The history of how abortion came to be banned and how women lost...rightspreviously thought to be natural and inherent over their own bodies is afascinating and infuriating one."--Chicago Tribune, "A fascinating book which sets to rest a number of preconceptions on thesubject.
