On Our Own: Unmarried Motherhood in America

From Publisher:

The U.S. has experienced a dramatic increase in births to unmarried women in recent decades-from 4% of births in 1950, with most of the babies then adopted, to more than 30% today. Melissa Ludtke's book is the only in-depth analysis of this radical change in family formation to compare and contrast the lives of these mothers of varying ages and economic circumstances.
