In "Radical Family: Trailblazing Moms Tell Their Stories", editor Margaret Mooney has compiled a collection of powerful and profoundly personal essays honoring the history-making struggles and triumphs of nine lesbian families who raised children in the 1980s, ’90s, and early 2000s. The contributors recount their diverse paths to parenthood, as well as the hopes and challenges each family experienced. With no rule book to guide them, they created a path for others to follow.
