This title brings together twenty-five writings by women who share
their rich and varied World War II experiences, from serving in the
military to working on the home front to preparing for the postwar
world. By providing evidence of their active and resourceful roles
in the war effort as workers, wives, and mothers, these women offer
eloquent testimony that World War II was indeed everybody's war.
Litoff and Smith combine pieces by well-known writers, such as
Margaret Culkin Banning and Nancy Wilson Ross, with important-but
largely forgotten-personal accounts by ordinary women living in
extraordinary times. This volume is divided into the six sections
listed below:
Preparing for War
In the Military
At 'Far-Flung' Fronts
On the Home Front
War Jobs
Preparing for the Postwar World
