My Life on the Road is a wonderful memoir told through moving and humorous anecdotes that cover everything from Steinem's family, her organizing activist life, and her political campaign work. As a product of the '70s, I had heard Gloria Steinem's name brought up and knew she was considered a feminist, though I had no clue as to her full impact on society then and now. Her compassion for everyone and ability to sit and listen to those she interacted with really shaped who she became and what she in turn taught to others. Reading about her history and take on life has thoroughly changed how I want to live out the rest of my life. Gloria Steinem has truly led an amazing wanderlust-filled life, touched many hearts, and changed history for all women. "...Adventure starts the moment I leave the door."
