from Atria
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
It has been SO LONG since I've read a book that I could not put down, and that I didn't end up dozing off with late at night. I work in a bookstore, I read all genres. A co-worker, who runs the history sections, and a Vietnam Vet, recommended this when I ventured into his section looking for... more info

from Harper Paperbacks
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
This book seems more intent on making a case that women were overlooked as pilots rather than on telling their story. None of the women come to life; rather than presenting fresh information, this book recycles anecdotes and headlines into a narrative. The listing of the names and backgrounds of the... more info

from Jason Aronson
Price: $25.00

Customer Review:
Just as a note: gram is the international unit of weight measurement, only some backward places on earth do cook their own soup with "measurements" such as "servings", ounzes, gallons, catty, etc.
For those who are interested in old stories and recipes, there is a book about "Soup", written by... more info

7.A Wasp Among Eagles: A Woman Military Test Pilot in World War IIA Wasp Among Eagles: A Woman Military Test Pilot in World War II
from Smithsonian Books

Customer Review:
Parts of this book were better than others. I think I liked the personal aspect of Ann Carl's life more than the adventures in flight. I just felt her book contained too many details and aeronautical jargon that would not hold a great deal of interest to those of us that have little or no knowledge... more info

from Cassell

Customer Review:
This book is compiled of the true experiences of Korean women, some as young as 14, who were forced into prostitution by the Japanese army.

10.Sisters in the ResistanceSisters in the Resistance
from Wiley
Price: $17.05

Customer Review:
Excellent chapters on the behind the scenes aspect of the resistance, including social services, where women dominated the field. The book does not, however, include food riots and worker's strikes. These are two areas of resistance that women also participated in.

For the most part Weitz is... more info
