By Evan Bachner.
Photographic historian Bachner has raided the National Archives for the work of the Naval Aviation Photographic unit to collect images for this stunning book. These b&w photographs depict the working lives of the first women to join the U.S. Navy during World War II, the WAVES. The images covey beautifully the spirit of the time when sacrifice and service were expected of every American. Both humorous and thoughtful these photographs were patriotic, heroic and showed seriousness of purpose. This collection of revealing and charismatic portraits show new insight into World War II.
