Book Description
General Ann Dunwoody, the first woman to achieve the rank of four-star general, earned her promotion in 2008, 60 years after women were first admitted to the military on a permanent basis. Even today, policies and legislation keep women from pursuing certain types of jobs like ground combat positions, making it difficult for more women to attain the highest ranks.
