Book Synopsis
Set against the backdrop of women's work experiences, friendships, and communities during World War I, this title draws on a substantial body of new archival material to expose the roadblocks still present in current practices and imagine new alternatives. It clarifies the ethical value and political purpose of identity history.

Trade Review
"Disturbing Practices stands comparison to the very best work in sexuality studies. Empirically rich and rigorous, it represents a challenging and groundbreaking intervention in the field." (Matt Houlbrook, author of Queer London)"
