  Examines women's role in the army and military organizations during the First and Second World Wars, during peacetime, in the interwar era and in the post-war period. This book argues that the women challenged traditional notions of gender and threatened to destabilise clear-cut notions of identity by unsettling the masculine territory of warfare.
