A Sisterhood of Suffering and Service: Women and Girls of Canada and Newfoundland during the First World War - Tapa blanda

"A Sisterhood of Suffering and Service "is innovative and unique, both in its combination of research on the two dominions and in its focus on girls, as well as women. Examining as it does the transformation of Canadian society and gender relations as a result of the First World War, this will be the standard work for some time to come. - Linda Kealey, author of Enlisting Women for the Cause: Women, Labour and the Left in Canada, 1890-1920 There has been very little published on the experiences of Canadian and Newfoundland women and girls in the First World War. This volume makes a start at filling that gap. It will stand alone as the single best book for university level studies on the history of women and the war. - David MacKenzie, editor of Canada and the First World War: Essays in Honour of Robert Craig Brown

This book will appeal to anyone interested in Canadian history and war and society, as well as to students and scholars of women's studies.
