In this groundbreaking global history of women and the First World War, Susan Grayzel explores the multifaceted ways in which women confronted the immense challenges posed by the war, encompassing both the devastating losses and the remarkable opportunities it offered. The First World War, a monumental conflict that mobilized millions of civilians and combatants, left an indelible mark on the modern world. A century after the signing of the last peace treaty to bring an end to this global struggle, its experiences and legacies for women continue to ignite intense debate and fascination. This revised edition, fueled by a wealth of new evidence from the remarkable scholarly explosion on women in all participating states, including occupied territories, Europe, its overseas empires, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and the United States, significantly broadens the war's geographical scope while preserving the diverse voices of women. Adopting a topical approach, this book enables a comprehensive exploration of the intersectional experiences of women. By including fresh documents that shed light on how women authored their wars and the profound impact of this conflict on women of varying statuses and geographies, this book opens the door to further inquiry into the lives of women during the First World War.

Packed with firsthand accounts, a chronology, and a glossary, this book serves as an invaluable resource for students delving into the study of the First World War or the history of women. It provides a comprehensive and accessible framework for understanding the complex and multifaceted roles that women played during this pivotal period of history.
