Summary: Fantastic Book
Review: This book is the best book on the subject. I couldn't put the book down. Very moving. Wonderful book for all types of uses--personal use, academic use (i.e., Sociology, English, Criminal Justice, Psychology, Women's Studies, Health, Human Development) and others too numerous to list here.This book is for more than just "daughters of alcoholic mothers"--it is for everyone with any interest in this broader area of human concern. Buy this book and develop tremendous insight into daughters of alcoholics (and others who deal with alcoholics).

Review: This is a must read for anyone searching for a connection that it WAS real...Daughters of alcoholic mothers may feel isolated in their childhood experiences due to the family secrecy. I'm thankful this book found me as I begin to remember the pain of my mother's death, and the struggle of her life. Thank you-

Summary: I have been looking for this book for 5 years
Review: This wonderful book was written for those of us who have been held hostage by our alcoholic mothers for far too long. Eleanor Agnew and Sharon Robideaux have given me a gift. They have helped me to come to terms with the misplaced guilt I have felt for most of my life. Their stories and those of the women they interviewed for this book have an amazingly recurrent theme. I never knew that there were so many women out there like me. Adult daughters of alcoholic mothers carry an incredible burden which affects every aspect of their lives. Agnew and Robideaux have done an excellent job of organizing their book into a guide for understanding what has happened in our wacky lives and how we can move on to sanity. The women who shared their stories,including the authors,have done a great service to all of us daughters of alcoholic mothers by letting us know that we are not alone....... Thank you Eleanor Agnew and Sharon Robideaux,from the bottom of my he! art,thank you.
