Eighty million books later, Nancy Drew has survived the Depression, World War II, and the sixties (when she was taken up with a vengeance by women\u2019s libbers) to enter the pantheon of American girlhood. As beloved by girls today as she was by their grandmothers, Nancy Drew has both inspired and reflected the changes in her readers\u2019 lives. Here, in a narrative with all the vivid energy and page-turning pace of Nancy\u2019s adventures, Melanie Rehak solves an enduring literary mystery: Who created Nancy Drew? And how did she go from pulp heroine to icon? <\/p>\n<p>The brainchild of children\u2019s book mogul Edward Stratemeyer, Nancy was brought to life by two women: Mildred Wirt Benson, a pioneering journalist from Iowa, and Harriet Stratemeyer Adams, a well-bred wife and mother who took over as CEO after her father died. In this century-spanning story, Rehak traces their roles\u2014and Nancy\u2019s\u2014in forging the modern American woman. <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-\">\n<h3 data-hook=\"cr-insights-heading-label\" class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book informative and interesting.
