Reviews

Of Love and War offers a methodological case study that historians of other conflicts can apply to their work in order to demonstrate the effects of war and militarization on women's lives and the involvement of the U.S. military in regulating the personal lives of soldiers and occupied citizens. Angela Wanhalla paints a rich and compelling picture of the lives of soldiers and civilians in love and war. . . . Fascinating and well-researched. --Heather Marie Stur, author of Saigon at War: South Vietnam and the Global Sixties
