(Subject: Other Topics - Diverse Subjects) This book examines the enormously important part that women played in the major wars of the twentieth century. From their involvement in the First World War as munitions workers, land girls, postal workers, drivers, and nurses, to their diverse roles in World War II - everything from fighter controllers, and ferry pilots to firefighters. The book is accompanied by an unique, 1 hour audio CD featuring the actual reminiscences of many of these key players and eyewitnesses, drawn from the magnificent Sound Archive of Britain's Imperial War Museum. The result is a remarkable publication that captures the reality of women at war in their own words, and voices.
