Second Line of Defense

In tracing the rise of the modern idea of the American "new woman", Lynn Dumenil examines World War I's surprising impact on women and, in turn, women's impact on the war. Telling the stories of a diverse group of women, Dumenil analyses both the roadblocks and opportunities they faced.

Traind aparitia ideii moderne de „femeie noua” americana, Lynn Dumenil examineaza impactul surprinzator al Primului Razboi Mondial asupra femeilor si, la randul sau, impactul femeilor asupra razboiului. Spunand povestile unui grup divers de femei, Dumenil analizeaza atat obstacolele, cat si oportunitatile cu care s-au confruntat.
