What Soldiers Do: Sex and the American GI in World… door Mary Louise Roberts

Outstanding. A comprehensive analysis of a neglected story - the misconduct of American soldiers during the liberation of France. Sexual offenses by the troops were common and the Army unjustly persecuted black troops as a public relations stunt to deflect criticism. There were constant tensions between the French and Americans, and the sexual predation by Americans would poison relationships between the two countries for decades to come.

Disruptive Acts: The New Woman in Fin-de-Siecle France door Mary Louise Roberts

Extremely well-written. The book has some flaws in its arguments and presentations, but there's no such thing as a flawless monograph. I really found Roberts' writing to be clear and engaging - very enjoyable. One of the best books I've read for my history seminar on "dangerous women" so far!
