Women at War 193945 by Jack Cassin-Scott
Though for centuries fighting was considered primarily a man's job, the world wars of the 20th century demanded women's involvement in the war effort. By World War II women were playing a major auxiliary role in all branches of the armed forces. From the daring female fighter pilots of besieged Russia to the heroic American nurses on the front line, this book looks at the vital jobs that women undertook at a time of national crisis. Numerous fascinating photos and eight full colour plates detail the uniforms and equipment of the British, American German and Russian women who participated in this global conflict.Jack Cassin-Scott's interests span a variety of historical periods. In addition to this book, he authored Men-at-Arms 69: The Greek and Persian Wars 500-323 BC and Men-at-Arms 102: Scandinavian Armies in the Napoleonic Wars.
Angus McBride was one of the world's most respected historical illustrators, and contributed to over 100 Osprey titles over several decades.
