| Publisher Description: Women have always played a part in war, but until recently in the U.S., they were not allowed to fight on the front lines. This book will look into the controversy surrounding women in combat while detailing stories of women from today and yesterday finding themselves on the front lines and the courage, initiative, and uphill battles they face as both soldiers and women hoping to make a difference. |
