Silent No More by Jeannie Pool is a book-length history of the women-in-music movement during the period 1975 through 1985, written in the form of an "advocacy memoir." It tells the story of the International Congress on Women in Music with detailed descriptions of the first congresses in New York, Los Angeles, Mexico City and Paris. It has not been published and was rejected by a couple of publishers in the mid-1990s because it is written in first person. Jeannie has drafted a second volume which covers the period 1985 through 1990.
