The book explores the historical context of gender roles during wartime, particularly focusing on World War I. It examines how the concept of the "home front" emerged, highlighting the shift in perception regarding women's contributions to the war effort. By redefining "home" and "domestic" within a military framework, it underscores the significant yet often overlooked roles that civilians, especially women, played during this pivotal period.
