Lady Lushes: Gender, Alcoholism, and Medicine in Modern America - Critical Issues in Health and Medicine
Michelle L. McClellan
Medical historian Michelle L. McClellan traces the story of the female alcoholic from the late-nineteenth through the twentieth century. She draws on a range of sources to demonstrate the persistence of the belief that alcohol use is antithetical to an idealized feminine role, particularly one that glorifies motherhood.
