Description: "A rare pleasure. Rooting gender and consumption in the actions of people making their own history, these brilliant essays move from nineteenth-century pinups to the formation of gendered modernity. Once you've savored this volume, you'll never think of modern life in the same way again."--Temma Kaplan, author of "Red City, Blue Period"
Review Quotes: "This wide-ranging volume . . . illuminates the development of modern consumption practices, gender roles and the sexual division of labor in both the U.S. and Europe."--"Feminist Bookstore News
