Descriere magazin:
An ingenious look at WWII. -- Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) A groundbreaking new history of the role of
American servicewomen in WWII, illuminating their forgotten yet essential contributions to the Allies\' victory.
Valiant Women is the story of the 350,000
American women who served in uniform during
World War II. These incredible women served in every service branch, in every combat theater, and in nearly two-thirds of the available military occupations at the time. They were pilots, codebreakers, ordnance experts, gunnery instructors, metalsmiths, chemists, translators, parachute riggers, truck drivers, radarmen, pigeon trainers, and much more. They were directly involved in some of the most important moments of the war, from the D-Day landings to the peace negotiations in Paris. These women--who hailed from every race, creed, and walk of life--died for their country and received the nation\'s highest honors. Their work, both individually and in total, was at the heart of the Allied strategy that won
World War II. Yet, until now, their stories have been relegated to the dusty shelves of military archives or a passing mention in the local paper. Often the women themselves kept their stories private, even from their own families. Now, military analyst
Lena Andrews corrects the record with the definitive and comprehensive historical account of
American servicewomen during
World War II, based on new archival research, firsthand interviews with surviving veterans, and a deep professional understanding of military history and strategy.
