This source was useful because it contained information and pictures about the womens land army. There were many picture sources that made the information more clear, and long captions helped to explain the picture in detail. These were used on our website to show the facts about the womens land army more clearly. xBowman, J. Beatrice. The Sacred Twenty. 1908. Photograph. NHHC Collection, Washington D.C. This source was helpful because it was a visual that showed the first Navy nurses. The appointing of the first Navy nurses was a big step for women and their involvement of the war. Bowman, John Stewart. America at War: World War I. Updated ed. New York: Facts on File, 2003. Print. This book was especially helpful because throughout the book, there were references to the women of the time and their effort during the war. It included pictures and very helpful information, especially because it had facts about womens role at the end of World War I. xCartwright, A. J. Employees of the Kirkland Woolen Mill. 1900. Photograph. Museum of History & Industry, Seattle, Kirkland, WA. This picture gives so much insight to the power that women gained over the years and World War I. It is depicted that the women actively worked there, whereas years before would not have had any part in it.

This book was helpful because it gave a lot of input on the history of womens rights. From early colonists to both World Wars, this book has so many little facts that were useful. It especially flourished when it came to the section about womens suffrage. xCorn, D. M., Mrs. Nurses Quarters. circa wwi. Photograph. U.S. Naval History & Heritage Command Photograph, Great Lakes, Illinois. This picture was very helpful in showing the progress of womens rights during the war.

Garay, Kathy, Dr. ""Support and Substitution": Women's Roles during World War I." Peace and War in the 20th Century. Canadian Culture Online Program of the Department of Canadian Heritage, n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. <http://pw20c.mcmaster.ca/case-study/support-and-substitution-women-s-roles-duringworld-war-i>.

George, Linda S. World War I: Letters From the Homefront. New York: Benchmark, 2002. Print. This book was extremely useful because it had many pictures showing the various jobs done by women, and the jobs were described in detail.

Women's Letters: America from the Revolutionary War to the Present. New York: Dial, 2005. 464. Print. This book was not very useful because it covered such a long time period, there was not much information at all on World War I. xHeritage Command Photograph. Ward Scene at Naval Hospital. 1919. Photograph. U.S. Naval History amp, Chelsea, Mass.

This picture was helpful to us because it demonstrated the role of women nurses in hospitals. It showed that they worked as nurses in places other than out on the front lines, at home at hospitals too, like they do today. Hines, Debbie. "Womens Voices, Womens Votes." Editorial. The Baltimore Sun [Baltimore] n.d.: n. pag. Politic365. Tribune Newspaper, 15 Oct. 2012. Web. 3 Jan. 2014. <http://politic365.com/2012/10/15/womens-voices-womens-votes/>. This article was helpful to us because it had information on the differences between men and women today, and how there is still struggle today for equal rights, even if the margin between the two genders is much smaller. xHeritage Command Photograph. Hudson Street Hospital. 1919. Photograph. U.S. Naval History amp, New York, NY. This photograph was helpful because it depicts that women were very involved at the hospitals, and were not just given menial jobs. xJones, L. C. US Army Signal Corps Telephone Operators. N.d. Photograph. Elizabeth Anne Browne Collection, Women's Memorial Foundation Collection., Tours, France. This source was very helpful because it showed that women took a big leap and were working jobs that, years before, men were working.

Phoenix, AZ: Oryx, 1996. 123-24. Print. Social Issues in American History Ser.

Web. 3 Jan. 2014. <http://historymartinez.wordpress.com/2012/05/19/mark-twain-votesfor-women-speech-1901/>. This website was not very helpful because although it did discuss womens rights, it was a speech that was given in the wrong time frame, and didnt have much of the information we were looking for. Messner, J. "Women In Glasgow In WWI." Riverside Museum. Wordpress, 11 Nov. 2010. Web. 3 Jan. 2014. <http://riversidemuseum.wordpress.com/2010/11/11/remembering-the-women-whokept-glasgow-moving-during-world-war-i/>.

Photograph. General Records of the United States Government; Record Group 11; National Archives, Washington D.C. Ed. National Archives. This resource was helpful because it is proof that after all the hard work done by women in America over time, they were finally granted the right to vote, and many rights after that. This document was signed partly due to the fact that the war greatly pushed ahead the suffrage movement. "Nurses and the U.S. Navy." Naval History and Heritage Command. Navy.mil, n.d. Web. 20 Jan. 2014. <http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/prs-tpic/nurses/nrs-e.htm>. This website was helpful to us because it had a lot of information about the women in the war. It tells about women in Red Cross, nursing positions, and other jobs on the front lines. xNurses Marching. 1919. Photograph. National Archives, Washington D.C. This picture was not very helpful because although it shows nurses, it does not

tell much about what they specifically did. Paterson, James. "World War 1 Women in War Ww1." HubPages. HubPages Inc, 4 July 2013. Web. 3 Jan. 2014. <http://jimmythejock.hubpages.com/hub/World-War-1Women-At-War>. This website was very helpful because it emphasizes that women really helped with the war effort: behind the scenes at home, or right on the front lines. Shmoop Editorial Team.

New Paths to Power: American Women, 1890-1920. Vol. Volume 7. New York: Oxford UP, 1994. Print. The Young Oxford History of Women in the United States.

Public Broadcasting Service, n.d. Web. 04 Feb. 2014. <http://www.pbs.org/fmc/timeline/plathrop.htm>. This website was slightly helpful because it had good information and a picture on Julia Lathrop, a womens reformer during World War I. It stated her major accomplishments and when they took place, but the information was only helpful to one section of our website. Wages, Joan. "Women and the Peace Movement." Women in the Progressive Era. National Women's History Museum, 2007. Web. 08 Feb. 2014. This source was helpful to us because it contained a plethora of information on the womens peace movement and the founding of the Women's International League of Peace and Freedom in Washington, DC. It told about how Jane Addams and other leading reformers formed the Womens Peace Party in the beginning of WWI. There were also pictures of the League of Peace. xWebster & Stevens. Office Interior at the Naval Training Station, Ca. 1918. 1918. Photograph. Museum of History & Industry, Seattle, Seattle, WA. This source was very helpful because it showed that women were no longer just in the background. They worked alongside men in everyday jobs, which was a big step for

women at that time. xWomen's Land Army Poster. 1916. Photograph. United States. Comp. John Simkin. This poster was helpful because it shows that during the war society was not afraid to advertise for women to work their jobs. This poster would have been a public announcement, and everyone would have seen it. This proves that it was becoming normal for women to work different jobs, especially in a all-female community, as the land army would have been. xWorld War I Navy Nurse. 1918. Photograph. U.S. Naval History Amp; Heritage Command Photograph, n.p. This photograph is helpful because it showed how freely women interacted with men during this time. Men had accepted the fact that women were more involved in society and would be working side by side with them, and this photo shows that.

underlined)
""Support and Substitution": Women's Roles during World War I." Peace and War in the 20th Century. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. This source offered good information concerning WWI, but unfortunately we could not use it. We were going to use its information on the English and British women of WWI, but later narrowed our topic to the American women of WWI.

"Queen's University Archives." - Women and the War. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. This source was useful because it contained several pictures (with captions) that explained the various aspects of a womens life during WWI. This includes propaganda, photos of nurses, and even a picture from a school for the blind.

"Women's Suffrage and World War I / Voting Rights and Citizenship Curriculum." Women's Suffrage and World War I / Voting Rights and Citizenship Curriculum. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. This website was useful because it contains information about the Womens Suffrage and its link to the Progressive Era. It also explains President Wilsons reasons for involving the U.S. in WWI.

"British Pathe." Ww1- Women's Role. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. This source was very helpful because it contained actual footage of women working during WWI (the videos were from the years 1910-1917). The women's jobs consisted of farm work, as well as manufacturing weapons in a factory.

"The Roles of Women in the War." , Women and the War, Australia and World War I, History Year 9, NSW. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. Similar to the case of the first source, this website proved itself useful until we narrowed down our topic. This source does not provide information on American women of WWI, but rather gives information on the WWI women of Australia and New Zealand.

"The Role Women Had in WW1 - All About World War 1." All About World War 1. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. This source was decided as unhelpful after we narrowed down our topic to the American women of WWI. This source focused on Australia's involvement in the war. It was still helpful, though, because the source was a Weebly website, giving us a look and feel for what our website should be like.

"Firstworldwar.com." First World War.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This website was very helpful because it contained links to the biographies of several important women during WWI. We are able to individually highlight the contributions to the war effort many of these women made.

"World War 1: Documenting the First Total War of the 20th Century." World War I. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This source seemed helpful at first, because it contained a collection of links to primary sources, such as official documents and newspapers. After further

review, though, we could not locate the information we needed out of the sources to which the links lead.

"Main Page." World War I Document Archive. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This source had a well-organized list of primary sources. The sources themselves provided good insights on WWI, but unfortunately did not have much information on the American women of WWI. All in all, this source was not very useful.

"Women in WWI." Women in WWI. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This source is a blog made about WWI. This was useful because it contained the excerpts of primary letters written by female nurses in WWI, particularly one written by a nurse from Washington state.

"Women in the Progressive Era." Women in the Progressive Era. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This source was very useful because it contained accurate information on WWI that stayed within our topic. It gave a clear insight to womens role in government as well as manufacturing work.

"Firstworldwar.com." First World War.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This site was very helpful becasue it contained very thourogh, yet not overwhelming information on the women's roles in WWI. It also provided a deeper explanation of how women took the place of men's jobs during the war.

"University of Washington Libraries Digital Collections." ::: UW Libraries Digital Collections :::. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This site was extremely helpful becasue it lead to a collection of various primary photos, with the included information needed to cite them. This provided me with the remaining sources I needed for my bibliography.

"Firstworldwar.com." First World War.com. N.p., n.d. Web. 16 Dec. 2013. This site was very helpful becasue it contained very thourogh, yet not overwhelming information on the women's roles in WWI. It also provided a deeper explanation of how women took the place of men's jobs during the war.

Atkinson, Diane. Elsie and Mairi Go to War: Two Extraordinary Women on the Western Front. New York: Pegasus, 2010. Print. This book was useful because although it is a secondary source, it provides a great look inside the lives of two women who played great roles in WWI. This book also contained cited primary photos, as well as excerpts from both Elsie and Mairi, the subjects of this book.

Feldman, Ruth Tenzer. World War I. Minneapolis, MN: Lerner Publications, 2004. Print. This book was helpful for two reasons. First, it contained a section of short biographies of important people in WWI, including several women. Second, although our topic mainly focuses on the time period of WWI, this book contains a section about womens lifestyle in the years following the war. We can use this as part of our conclusion piece in our website.

Freedman, Russell. The War to End All Wars: World War I. Boston: Clarion, 2010. Print. Unfortunately, this book was not very helpful because it has too wide of a view over WWI. There was very little information on women during the war, and less so on American women.

"RRs of Madison County." RRs of Madison County. N.p., n.d. Web. 5 Jan. 2014. This source was somewhat useful. This website contained a photograph that we used in our website. It pictured women in WWI working for the companies in town. xKunishige, Frank. Betti. 1924. Photograph. Modern Photographers Collection, n.p. This source was not helpful. The photo was taken at the wrong time period, after WWI had ended, so we could not use it for reference. Also, it was undetermined as to if the picture was related to WWI at all.

xWebster & Stevens. First Aid Station at Campus Day. 1918. Photograph. Museum of History & Industry Photograph Collection, n.p. This photo was useful because it featured women running a first aid station on the UW campus during WWI. This shows the direct effect university students in Washington State had on the war effort.

xJacobs, Frank A. Red Cross Ambulance Drivers and Ambulances. 1917. Photograph. Museum

of History & Industry Photograph Collection, Seattle. This source was helpful because it shows the Red Cross and its involvement in the city of Seattle. Not much is said about Washingtons involvement in the war effort, and this can be used as reference.

xWebster & Stevens. Female Yeomen in Front of Building at the U.S. Naval Training Station. 1917-1918. Photograph. Museum of History & Industry Photograph Collection, Seattle. This source was useful because it has a good representation of how women in the Seattle area trained to become soldiers, or specifically, marines.

xTwo Women with Woman Who Probably Is Babe Freeman with U.S. Army World War I Enlistment Poster. 1917-1918. Photograph. Society and Culture Collection, Portland, OR. This source was very useful becasue it features women in a very important role of the war effort: recruiting troops. Here they are seen holding an enlistment poster, encouraging people to join the army.

xArmy Nurses at Base Hospital 47 in France. 1918. Photograph. Museum of History & Industry Photograph Collection, France. This source was not useful because while it showed a good representation of women working as nurses during the war, it showed French nurses, not American nurses.

xM. A., Oliver. Adelphia College Students, Seattle. 1909. Photograph. Society and Culture Collection, Seattle. This photo is somewhat useful. It is a group photo of students attending a univeristy before WWI. After WWI started, the school was closed down. This serves as a look at life before the war.

xAdelphia College Students and Staff, Seattle. 1910. Photograph. Society and Culture Collection, Seattle. This picture was slighlty helpful. It is a picture of the students and staff of a univeristy shortly before WWI started. After the war started, the school was eventually closed. This source can help us imagine life before the the war.
