Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Scarce, small-press feminist title from the early 1970's explores the psychological and emotional dimensions of women's lives during wartime - not as combatants, but as "concomitant soldiers," living parallel battles of waiting, loss, and endurance. Jason's prose examines how war reshapes identity and intimacy, portraying women as both participants and survivors in a male-defined conflict. The tone & style is reflective, feminist, and sociological and written in literary realism with dialogue-driven scenes and introspective narration. Set in the mid-20th-century America, with references to Harrisburg and Camp Campbell, situating the story amid domestic and military spheres.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book tells the story of Slovak underground member Maria Gulovich's unlikely heroism, focusing on the former elementary schoolteacher's courageous actions in saving American OSS agents. It describes how, while trapped with the agents behind enemy lines, she forayed into enemy occupied villages to find scarce food for the starving men, spied out enemy troop strength, and occasionally obtained shelter from blizzards with terrified but kind citizens. For her heroism, the U.S. government presented her with a Bronze Star. The work includes an extensive bibliography, a map of the area held by insurrectionists, and several photographs offering a glimpse of World War II seldom seen.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. A realistic but fond memoir of a girlhood lived in a coal camp, or "patch" in southwestern Pennsylvania during the Great Depression of the 1930s, Icon of Spring is also a coming-of-age story. It begins in 1932 when the narrator, the child of Carpatho-Rusyn immigrant parents, is seven years old. Her father is a miner, and work is scarce as the grip of the depression tightens. The jars of canned food on the storeroom shelf are dwindling, and the family fears eviction from their small company-owned house.Icon of Spring recounts her childhood during the next seven years, as she grows to adolescence in a world that is protective within her family but shares the violence of the coal region. She is witness to accidental death in the mines, the murder of a coal and iron policeman, the muted struggle to unionize, and the itinerant beggars who appear at the back door.Yet this is far from a grim book, for we see life in the patch through the eyes of the child. Warmed by the closeness she feels toward her parents, especially her mother, and her nine brothers and sisters, she knows the joy of one sisterÆs wedding and raucous reception, the mysterious Easter ritual of the Eastern Orthodox Liturgy, the fun of attending a medicine show, and the almost incandescent hope placed in the new president, Franklin D. Roosevelt. Her life is peopled by traveling peddlers, the priest of her church, a union organizer, and the town bachelors: Big John, Peg Leg Pete, and Shorty Steve.Icon of Spring evokes life in a depression coal patch from a female perspective. A splendid memoir of childhood told with accuracy and warmth which is also rich in social history, it will appeal to general readers as well as students.…

Softcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. [good solid copy, but with some uneven fading around the edges of both the front and rear covers, minor soiling to page edges; bookstore rubber-stamp on inside front cover].
