- Annotation
- Studies a variety of postwar writers who challenged na ve American assumptions regarding the monstrous foreign other and the strong American solider in their depictions of injured World War I veterans. Contends that these damaged bodies, reflecting the physical and psychological horrors of war, revealed America s prejudices about disability and fed on growing cynicism regarding American foreign policy.
