The Second World War has often been regarded a period of great change for women. Using both print and oral historical sources this paper seeks to detail, measure and understand the changes which were occurring both during and after the war to ideas and attitudes about gender in Trail. British Columbia. Diverse and complex changes are detailed through the memories of both women and men and their children. This paper argues for the importance of inter-generational investigations of change through the use of oral history and illustrates that historical change is often as multi-faceted as the individual experiences of people themselves.
