June Melby Benowitz. Days of Discontent: American Women and Right-Wing Politics. DeKalb: Northern Illinois University Press. 2002. Pp. 230. $38.00.

Students of twentieth-century conservative and far-right groups have long recognized that women have constituted an important part—often a majority—of the rank-and-file. Specialists in women's history have been less likely to notice these sorts of activists. June Melby Benowitz plausibly estimates that a million women passed through such groups during the 1930s and 1940s, and she sets out to study them from the "standpoint of a historian of women and women's movements" (p. 7). Her book both overlaps with and supplements the standard work on the subject, Glen Jeansonne's Women of the Far Right: The Mothers Movement and World War II (1996).
