Women and the Military looks at the significant contributions women have made to the services throughout our nation's history. By including information on all aspects of the combatant, noncombatant, and support roles of women in the military, this illustrated encyclopedia chronicles both the accomplishments and the ongoing struggles experienced by women serving or fighting for the right to serve. In total, nearly 400 alphabetical entries cover notable individuals, events, laws, court cases, concepts, organizations, wars, and military branches. A highly readable introduction provides an informative and useful context for the entries, while generous cross-referencing, an index, and a bibliography ensure readers can easily locate related topics of interest.

Review:
"...this important reference work should be purchased by all junior-high, high-school, public, and academic libraries. It fills a significant gap since women's contributions in this area have been largely ignored in standard encyclopedias and biographical dictionaries." - Reference & User Services Quarterly "This timely and highly informative encyclopedia chronicles both the contributions and the difficulties women have experienced within the U.S. military. Women's myriad contributions to our military efforts have previously been ignored in the military reference literature. All libraries will now want to fill that lapse with this unique, thoroughly researched title." - American Libraries "The intended audience for this encyclopedia is students, librarians, journalists, members of the military, and general readers. They will find Women and the Military a useful and welcome resource." - American Reference Books Annual
