Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diary of a French Private: War Imprisonment 1914 1915 The women are even more horrible than the men. The murderous glance, the clawed fingers, working and tearing as if in the dream of a tigress, the nostrils dilated and twitching, the lips cyanosed, grimacing hatred never before have I seen such faces Of damned souls, such Medusa heads. Who could believe that women should appear so horrible! When the train stops for any time, richly dressed matrons parade beside it, Ofi'ering our guards mugs of beer, cigars and cigarettes, bread-and-butter and jam, steaming sausages. Sick with hunger and fatigue, we look on at this prodigality. Above all, they say, give nothing to these French! Let them starve! We are Offered water.

  • Release : 2014-10-27
  • ISBN : 085772469X
  • Pages : 240 pages

Download or read book Dressed for War written by Nina Edwards and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-27 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Men in khaki and grey squatting in the trenches, women at work, gender bending in goggles and overalls over their trousers, a girl at the Paris theatre in pleated, beaded silk, a bangle on her forearm made from copper fuse wire from the Somme. What people wear matters. Copiously illustrated, this book is the story of what people on both sides wore on the front line and on the home front through the seismic years of World War I. Nina Edwards, reveals fresh aspects of the war through the prism of the smallest details of personal dress, of clothes, hair and accessories, both in uniform and civilian wear. She explores how, during a period of extraordinary upheaval and rapid change, a particular preference for a type of razor blade or perfume, say, or the just-so adjustment to the tilt of a hat, offer insights into the individual experience of men, women and children during the course of World War I.
