Awakening the Warrior Within Women and Girls... Women have been sold a bill of goods - that they are helpless in the face of attack. Nonsense, asserts auther Ellen Snortland, and proceeds to trace her discovery of self defense and how it changed her life. This book is a clarion call to 'sleeping beauties' to wake up and take charge of their own self-defense - both verbal and physical - and celebrates women (and kids) who fought back. Here is an irreverent, but deadly serious look at how family, religion, history, news and entertainment keep women thinking they are helpless, and how the author and other women have vanquished this self-defeating attitude.
