A Look Inside The Oxford Illustrated History of the First World War

After the February revolution, Maria Botchkareva, who served in the tsarist army, was asked by Kerensky to form a “battalion of death,” made up exclusively of women.Women had formed nursing units for service with the British army in the Crimean War, and continued to do so until 1914. The women of America were urged to follow the militant example of Joan of Arc and buy War Savings Stamps.This American poster, produced shortly after the USA entered the war, was designed to encourage support for the allied war effort, and remind the public of what the French people were going through.
