"WOMEN WANTED" by Mabel Potter Daggett is a historical account written in the early 20th century, specifically during World War I. The narrative centers on the evolving roles of women in society during the war, particularly through the lens of a female journalist's experiences. The book explores themes of feminism, resilience, and the impact of war on women's rights and opportunities. The opening of the text introduces the narrator as she prepares to embark on a perilous journey to Europe to document the ramifications of the Great War, especially on women's lives. The protagonist reflects on her experiences and the preparations required for her mission, including acquiring various credentials and navigating military scrutiny. As she travels from New York to England, her anxious anticipation is palpable, highlighting the challenges women faced during a time of conflict. The beginning effectively sets the stage for a powerful exploration of gender dynamics and the personal cost of war, providing a vivid backdrop as the protagonist steps into a vastly altered world.
