Title: Rebel Reformer Religious Extraordinaire
First published: November 1997
Description: In her early years growing up in Alberta, Irene Farmer witnessed western feminists making significant strides towards women's liberation. Inspired by their single-minded heroic spirit, she defined the Sister of Charity as one commanding respect for women's rights in the Church and in the world.

This is the story of young women worldwide who entered religious life before Vatican II and who reacted with enthusiasm, energy and creativity to the post-Vatican II demands for adaptation to a contemporary world.
