Lee Miller : a woman's war / Hilary Roberts, Antony Penrose. - 224 pages : illustrations (black and white, and colour)

Lee Miller photographed innumerable women during her career, first as a fashion photographer and then as a journalist during the Second World War, documenting the social consequences of the conflict, particularly the impact of the war on women across Europe. Her work as a war photographer is perhaps that for which she is best remembered - in fact she was among the 20th century's most important photographers on the subject. Published to coincide with an exhibition at the Imperial War Museum, this book tells the story beyond the battlefields of the Second World War by way of Miller's extraordinary photographs of the women whose lives were affected.
