Re: women and cars?

I have a chapter in my dissertation (UT, 2001) about feminism and mothering
and driving.  I use (Wright, Priscilla Hovey (1939). The Car Belongs to
Mother.  Boston, MA: Houghton Mifflin).  The dissertation is about the
interstate highway machine in the US.  Hope that helps--if you are
interested in this angle, contact me for additional citations.

Sincerely,

Kevin
