Annotation |
Accounts of wartime roles of eighty-four American women. Besides portraying the women's shouldering of new responsibilities at home--sewing uniforms, preparing cartridges, and making bandages--these sketches record unsung acts of patriotism and heroism. One vignette is of Deborah Sampson Gannet who, disguised in a soldier's uniform, fought in battles for three years.
