I make no profit on this book, but I can't get enough of them out to pro-lifers fast enough. Please buy it and then give it to a pro-lifer legislator or campaigner.
Tragedies of Abortion in America Before Roe v Wade The landmark US
Supreme Court decision in favor of legal abortion did not affect the
number of babies delivered in the years following; there was, however, a
drastic decline in maternal mortality. There has always been abortion
on demand for those women who do not feel they can have a baby, either
by do-it-yourself with drugs or by instrument self-inflicted or
assisted. There always will be abortion on demand. If abortion becomes
illegal again, women will once again seek the backrooms, the motels, the
shacks, the coat hangers and knitting needles. The only difference will
be when abortion is illegal, will the mother die too? Based on
extensive research, including interviews with documentary filmmakers and
activists, D-L Nelson describes the crusade against botched illegal
abortions through the personal stories of the women who suffered, those
who preyed upon or vilified them, and doctors and clergy who cared
enough to get the laws changed. From Sarah Grosvenor, at the center of
one of the first abortion trials in the New World ... to popular
children's TV star Miss Sherri ... to Madame Restell ("the wickedest
woman in New York") ... Anthony Comstock, Lawrence Lader, Bill Baird,
Curtis Boyd, David Grimes, Henry Morgentaler ... the Clergy Consultation
Service and the Jane Collective ... to Norma McCorvey, Linda Coffee and
Sarah Weddington, you'll learn the backstories of men, women and
organizations who were key players in the abortion and birth control
debate across the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries. The book features a
detailed timeline of abortion milestones from 3000 BC to the present,
plus a bibliography of books, periodicals, films / videos and websites.
