More a feminist work than a work on war

This book very much continues the feminist exploration begun in A Room of One’s Own, this time with the framing device of a response to a letter asking for help preventing war (the book was written a year before the beginning of World War II). There is a lot of information, and a number of interesting ideas are presented here. Overall, though, I found it a more difficult and less focused book than Room. Certainly still worth reading.
