Synopsis:
This groundbreaking reference work presents more than 100 articles by 98 high-profile interdisciplinary scholars, covering all aspects of girls' roles in American society, past and present.
· Includes more than 120 essays incorporating the most recent research on topics ranging from acquaintance rape to tea parties, from Nancy Drew to Riot Girls

Book Description:
The American girl is not the middle-class white girl of popular imagination. She's a multitude—a vibrant spectrum of experience that encompasses immigrant and Native American girls, Red Diaper girls and surfer girls, girl gangs and sorority members, mill workers and Girl Scouts, lesbians, and little mothers.
