Recensione:

"An ambitious and exciting book that examines representations of what could be considered tomboys, in U.S. fiction and film, since 1859. The scope is impressive: Abate has done a great deal of archival research to unearth the titles she examines and cites many relevant theoretical and critical texts." --Beverly Lyon Clark, Wheaton College

"The author provides a detailed look at the dynamic trajectory of the tomboy 'code of conduct' in popular literature, pulp fiction, and Hollywood film....Abate suggests that the dynamic evolution of the tomboy represents wider social and cultural debates within the US." --CHOICE, May 2009
