From the rear cover

"Swanee Hunt's life reads like a novel. Born into a powerful, conservative, and patriarchal American family, a young girl grows up to use her part of that power to support the powerless and to encourage peace and women's leadership around the world. To discover the fascinating story in between, you must read "Half-Life of a Zealot.""--Gloria Steinem
