Readers & Reviews › Editorial Review
 
Gr 5 Up-Once again the author of The Valiant Women of the Vietnam War (2000) and Those Remarkable Women of the American Revolution (1996, both Millbrook) shows how women contributed during a time of war. She first explains how World War I got started and how the United States became involved. Separate chapters treat industrial workers, nurses, journalists, navy personnel, and "unsung heroes." Each chapter has quotes from diaries, reports, or letters that show what the women thought and experienced. The black-and-white photos and color reproduction of a recruiting poster are interesting and informative. A well-written, organized book.
