Gender, War and Politics: Transatlantic Perspectives, 1775–1830 (War, Culture and Society, 1750-1850)

This volume addresses war, developing political and national identities and the changing gender regimes of Europe and the Americas between 1775 and 1830. Military and civilian experiences of war and revolution, in free and slave societies, both reflected and shaped gender concepts and practices, in relation to class, ethnicity, race and religion.
