This work is a comparative study of the three "great" American wars
of the twentieth century: World War I, World War II and Vietnam.
The book explores several aspects of American popular culture, like
fashion, film and the societal mores of each era. While a number of
books have covered fashion during individual wars, this is the
first study to compare several major conflicts, drawing some
conclusions regarding the lasting influences of wardrobe over an
entire century. This book provides short background information for
each war, briefly covering earlier conflicts that shaped the
hostilities of the twentieth century. Although the emphasis is on
women's clothing, participation and service, men are not ignored.
Their fashions not only speak to the times, but the enormity of
their sacrifices.
