E-mail: 		I have just finished reading Misogyny...I have always brushed of feminist views from my own as I never understood the full magnitude of our history. This book was a fantastic eye opener, it was beautifully written and exposed the realities in our past and even present society. Thank you for writing the book, it's concise nature makes it available to all women...and men of couse, and because of this I have recommended it to everyone i have come across in recent weeks :}

But from what I read so far, I can say that it is one of the most important books I have ever read. It kind of opend my eyes as women my age tend to forget about the past and to ignore signs of misogyny in everyday life.

I still miss my mate Jack and hope that he's doing well where ever he is...As I get a little older I miss having someone like Jack to help guide me through, it's hard to find friends like him in this world. Good luck mate, William

Appreciate that the names of the many victims are mentioned, they must not be forgotten. Walked both the Shankill and Falls Roads, unforgettable! Walked the Bloody Sunday route in Derry. Mr. Holland reminds me of another author too soon departed, Robert Ruark. They both left a void that has yet to be filled.

Sending you and your family many blessings!

The skill which Jack draws together seemingly disparate threads from history is quite awesome and I am currently rereading the book. I have been working on my own book on misogyny for some time and when I first read Jack's wonderful tome I felt like momentarily giving up. But as Jack pointed out his book will not be the last on misogyny and I sincerely hope that my effort will complement his legacy.
Many thanks to Mary and Jenny for their tenacity in getting Jack's book published. Inj my view it is truly a major turning point in the history of the human race.

Thank you for your diligence in getting this book published, despite the original publisher having dropped it. If you would provide the name of such original publisher, I will write a letter to the company regarding my disdain for such 'fearful' conservatism. Many thanks.

E-mail: 		This book and its straightforward title jumped out at me at a bookstore. I purchased it and read it in one sitting. Unforunately, I did not start with the introduction and was chagrined after my reading to learn of Jack Holland's passing, because I would have wished to shake his hand.

I will give this book as a gift to every person whom I feel can benefit from it.

Thank you to Jack Holland and his generous family. These are the efforts that can, and will, change our understandings, our conditions, and our world.

E-mail: 		I'm actually reading the History of Misogyny book for the 3rd time and wanted to pass along my warm wishes to Jack Holland's family. His book is a masterpiece and in my opinion, should be required reading in all schools! Big thanks to his wife and daughter for getting it published after the originally published pulled his very ironic stunt considering the book's subject matter.
