520 1 $a"For more than fifty years Bella Abzug championed the powerless and disenfranchised as an activist, a congresswoman, and a leader in every major social initiative of her time - from Zionism and labor in the forties, to the ban-the-bomb efforts in the fifties, to the civil rights and anti-Vietnam War movements in the sixties, to the women's movement in the seventies and eighties, to environmental awareness and economic equality in the nineties. Her political activism never waned, and Abzug gave her final public speech before the UN in March 1998, just a few weeks before her death." "Presented in the voices of both friends and foes, of those who knew, fought with, revered, and struggled alongside her, this oral history is the first comprehensive account of a woman who was one of our most influential leaders."--BOOK JACKET.
