- Description
- In this chronological book the author tries to reframe the understanding of the war through the specific and powerful stories of individual women. It was their war, too. Women in Minnesota enlisted in all branches of the military and worked for the military as civilians during World War II. They labored in factories, mines, and shipyards. They were also tireless peace activists, and they worked to relocate interned Japanese American citizens and European refugees. They served as cryptologists, journalists, pilots, riveters, factory workers, nurses, entertainers, and spies.

The author examines their personal stories in order to show how they not only faced physical danger and suffer illness and exhaustion, but also fought male prejudice and struggled for recognition of their status.

- More than 800,000 Soviet women fought against Hitler's onslaught during the 'Great Patriotic War,' 1941-45. Female participation in military conflict on such a scale is historically unique. This is the first comprehensive study of the hitherto largely hidden history of the crucial role women played in the defeat of fascism on the Eastern Front.

- Description
- Drawing on a wealth of regimental histories, newspaper archives, and a host of previously unreported accounts, Hall shows that women served in more capacities and in greater number-perhaps several thousand-than has previously been known. They served in the infantry, cavalry, and artillery and as spies, scouts, saboteurs, smugglers, and frontline nurses. From all walks of life, they followed husbands and lovers into battle, often in male disguise that remained undiscovered until they were wounded (or gave birth), and endured the same hardships and dangers as did their male counterparts.

- Description
- This book highlights the history of women's participation in the U.S.Navy.
