Outside of laws surrounding the issue of life, this new book offers a real ‘street-level’ perspective on abortion.
THE STORY OF ABORTION IN AMERICA:
A STREET-LEVEL HISTORY, 1652-2022
Marvin Olasky and Leah Savas
Crossway, 2023
512 pages, $39.95
To order: crossway.org/books or (800) 543-1659
If you have any pro-life interest at all, get and read this book!
There are very few thoroughly researched pro-life books on the market. This one is unique: It looks at abortion not from the rarefied perch of the law, but from the “street level” — as abortion took place in America. It is also both gripping and well-written: The documentation is solid, but the style is readable and engaging.
This book carries us from abortion in the 13 colonies to America on the eve of Dobbs, i.e., last June. It explodes myths and shows how Americans have always been of two minds about prenatal killing. Perhaps most striking, it shows that there’s nothing new under the sun about abortion in America.
Pro-abortionists claim that American women were free to abort until the first anti-abortion laws were enacted in 1821 in Connecticut. That’s just not true.
