Sobre este artículo
London: Hodder & Stoughton, 2003. Fine/Fine. First Edition, First Printing in d/w not price clipped. SIGNED BY KATE ADIE, without dedication or inscription on title-page. Profusely illustrated with photographs and line-drawings. The twentieth century has been a period of tumultuous change for women - both in conflict and on the home front. Nowhere are these changes seen more obviously than in the uniforms they wore -from the tight corsets of the nurses in the early 1900s to the battle-ready camouflage of the present day. In this authoritative and vivid history, she celebrates the remarkable and often unackowledged heroism of women whose wide range of roles - from nursing to land girl to fighter pilot - has been so essential to military and civilian life through two world wars and beyond. A revelation of our changing attitudes and times, this is also a compelling insight into the lives of ordinary women performing extraordinary deeds. With Source Notes, Bibliography and Index. D/w now protected in a detachable, non-adhesive, clear sheaf. HEAVY BOOK PLEASE CONTACT US ABOUT POSTAGE. ORDERS OUTSIDE OF UK MAY INCUR EXTRA COST.. Signed By Author, Kate Adie. First Edition, First Printing. Hardback. Fine/Fine.
