Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 Sandra’s father, Harry Day, wanted to go to college. He thought he’d go to Stanford after serving in World War I. But just as he set out for college, his father died, leaving his parched and dusty family ranch in southeast Arizona in terrible financial straits.#2 Sandra Day O’Connor, who was only child, had a sense of entitlement that was typical of straight white men. She was confident in her own equal value, and she would absorb a high level of injustice without complaint.#3 Ruth Bader’s mother, Celia, had been raised Orthodox, but she had taught her daughter more about the tradition of justice than the more rigid rules of the Jewish faith. When Ruth was older, she and her mother had a ritual of weekly outings.#4 Ruth Bader was a co-ed at Cornell University, one of the two Ivy League schools that accepted men and women together. She was a typical college coed, appearing in her sorority house picture dressed in a buttoned-up cardigan over a straight skirt topped off with a trendy little knotted scarf.
