Using 22 illustrations and many examples of decidedly visual prose, this book examines both the literary and visual texts of American female wartime observers from 1915 to 1945 - Edith Wharton, Mildred Aldrich, Martha Gellhorn, H.D., Lee Miller and Gertrude Stein. By focusing on popular journalism, propaganda, experimental prose, surrealist and fashion photography, and concentration camp scenes, Jean Gallagher illustrated the gendering of wartime vision.
Jean Gallagher is an assistant professor of English in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at Polytechnic University in New York City.
