At a time when womens magazines taught housewives how to make the perfect casserole, Helen spoke directly to the single girl next door, cheekily advising her on how to pursue men, money, power, pleasure, and, most of all, personal happiness.In this retro romp that will appeal to fans ofMad Men, journalist Brooke Hauser reveals how a self-proclaimed mouseburger from the Ozarks became one of the most influential women of her time.
