Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. The only published record of the 24,028 women who enlisted to serve as part of the Australian army in World War II. Despite initial refusal to acknowledge their merit, they went on to prove themselves in every area except actually killing the enemy. The author interviewed many of the women, now no longer with us who said it was the best and proudest time of their lives they were the beginning of feminism because the army tested them on entrance and they realised what their actual capabilities were beyond homekeeping. There is a fascinating section on mustard gas experiments. Signed by Author(s). N° de réf. du vendeur 122

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : As New. Hilary Rhodes (illustrateur). 2nd Edition. This is a unique book in many ways - endorsed by Margaret Whitlam -one of a kind that tells the story of the AWAS in WW11, how 24,028 took over all army jobs except for actual killing, across Australia and in Papua New Guinea. This book is much loved because the stories are from the lips of the AWAS themselves, many of whom are no longer with us. There are photos including visual proof that they took part in poisonous experiments, against the Geneva Convention, as well as light-hearted accounts. This copy is signed by the author and illustrator, so it is a collector's item. It will preserve the AWAS deserved place in history.The book itself is very well preserved, with an as new jacket. There is just a little tannin on the frontespiece. This book, with its sequel Where do we go from Here? was later combined in one volume called You'll be Sorry! The publisher is Big Sky.
