Description

This historical study unveils the forgotten narratives of French women during the First World War, examining their diverse contributions to the war effort that have been largely erased from popular memory and official monuments. The book explores the experiences of French women across multiple roles - from charitable work and nursing to munitions manufacture, military volunteering and espionage - whilst investigating how these women told their own stories and how French society interpreted them. By recovering these untold accounts, the work challenges conventional historical narratives and demonstrates the significant yet overlooked impact of women on the home front and beyond.
