Petticoats and White Feathers: Gender Conformity, Race, the Progressive Peace Movement, and the Debate Over War, 1895-1919
Erika Kuhlman
Kuhlman explores the reasons so many antiwar progressive reformers ended up forming the most vocal faction favoring U. S. intervention in World War I. Some suffragists supported war because they saw war relief work as a way to prove themselves manly enough to withstand the rigors of citizenship during war, and therefore worthy of the vote.
