Creating GI Jane fills huge void in women's military history

As a history student focusing on women's World War II military history, I can honestly say that this is the best book out there for original analysis and attention to detail. Meyer covers everything behind-the-scenes that does not get written about with women's military history. If you're looking for a good analysis on WHY the Women's Army Corps created certain rules and HOW they enforced them, this is the only book that you need.
