Abstract: "Holding fast to traditional values in the face of unprecedented economic hardship, approximately one million American women joined right-wing organizations during the Great Depression and World War II. Days of Discontent sheds light on the appeal the far right held for these women, whose political self-awareness grew with the tumultuous times."--Jacket.
