Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information

The First World War had a revolutionary and permanent impact on the personal, social and professional lives of all women. Their essential contribution to the war in Europe is fully documented in this definitive collection of primary source materials brought together in the Imperial War Museum, London.

These unique documents -- charity and international relief reports, pamphlets, photographs, and press cuttings -- are published here for the first time in fully searchable form, along with interpretative essays from leading scholars. Together these documents form an indispensable resource for the study of 20th Century social, political, military and gender history.

The researcher can study themes such as the day-to-day life in wartime hospitals, women's activities in Canada, Australia, South Africa and other regions of the world, as well as the numerous accounts of hardship, heroism and loyalty.
