The Girls Are Coming (Midwest Reflections)

Rating:
Summary: Not your typical 'glass ceiling' story.
Review: Carlson is a wonderful storyteller. Her humorous account of working in a formerly all-male company full of good-ole boy Minnesota Scandinavians provides a wonderful backdrop for a discussion of the history of gender issues in the workplace. "The Girls are Coming" is a piquant slice of American history which precedes the more modern, white-collar lament of the 'glass ceiling'.
