War Girls reveals the fascinating story of the British women who
volunteered for service in the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry during
the Great. Examining their experiences on the Western Front with
the Belgian, British and French Armies, this book shows how the
FANY worked as nurses and ambulance driver-mechanics, inspiring
stories of female heroism and solidarity. The FANY created skilled
gendered performances against the cultural myths of the time, and
in concert with their emerging legend. Coming from privileged
backgrounds, they drew upon and subverted traditional arrangements,
crafting new and unconventional identities for themselves. The
author shares the stories of the FANY - a fascinating, quirky and
audacious group of women - and illustrates the ways the Great War
subverted existing gender arrangements. It will make fascinating
reading for those working in the field of gender and war, as well
as those who wish to find out more about this remarkable group of
women. -- .
