Women Needless to say the War, 1941-1945 offers a brief introduction to the experiences of Wisconsin women in World War II through selections from oral history interviews through which women addressed issues concerning their wartime lives.

In this volume, more than 30 women describe how they balanced their more traditional roles in the house with new demands placed on them by the biggest global conflict in history. This book provides a wealthy mix of insights, incorporating the perspectives of workers in factories, in offices, and on farms in addition to those of wives and mothers who found their work in the house. As well as, the volume comprises accounts by women who served in a foreign country in the military and the Red Cross. These accounts provide readers with a vivid picture of how women coped with the stresses created by their day by day lives and by the additional burden of worrying about family members fighting in a foreign country.
