New Handbook for a Post-Roe America: The Complete Guide to Abortion Legality, Access, and Practical Support Book Review

Though Roe V. Wade has been the law of the land for nearly half a century, it has not had the same solid legal standing as other pieces of legislation. At both the national and state level, there have been many who have tried to either weaken it or destroy it completely.

In 2019, New Handbook for a Post-Roe America: The Complete Guide to Abortion Legality, Access, and Practical Support, by Robin Marty with a foreword by Amanda Palmer hit bookshelves. In short, this book is a complete resource for anyone who needs to seek an abortion should the procedure become illegal in the future. It contains lists of medical facilities and organizations, advice on how to start organizing, who to trust should abortion become a necessity, etc.

What I find to be scary is the necessity of this book. In our day and age, a woman’s right and ability to determine her future by choosing when and if to reproduce is chosen by someone else, i.e. a man. I hate that it is a necessity, but given the current climate in this country, this may be the only option available.

Do I recommend it? Absolutely.

New Handbook for a Post-Roe America: The Complete Guide to Abortion Legality, Access, and Practical Support is available wherever books are sold.
