This book tells the story of women in the First World War at the
front line, under fire, and in combat. Through their diaries,
letters and memoirs, meet the women who defied convention and
followed their convictions to defend the less fortunate and fight
for their country. Follow British Flora Sandes as she joins the
Serbian Army and takes up a place in the rear-guard of the Iron
Regiment as they retreat from the Bulgarian advance. Stow away with
Dorothy Lawrence as she smuggles herself to Paris, steals a uniform
and heads to the Front. Enlist in Russia's all-female 'Battalion of
Death' alongside peasant women and princesses alike. Through the
letters, diaries and memoirs of women who were members of
organisations such as the US Army Signal Corps, the Canadian Army
Medical Corps, the FANY, WRAF, WRNS, WAAC and many others, we learn
what life was like for them on the front and discover the courage
of the women who took up arms.
