		This is a study of the British Empire's largest women's patriotic organization, the Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire (IODE), formed in 1900 and still in existence.
		The text examines the relationship between female imperialism and national identity, throwing new light on women's involvement in imperialism; on the history of "conservative" women's organizations; on women's interventions in debates concerning citizenship and national identity; and on the history of women in white settler societies.
		It follows the IODE's history through the 20th century, focusing on its attempts to create a British Canada through its maternal feminist work in education, health, welfare and citizenship, and examines the complex relationship between imperial loyalty and settler nationalism, tracing the organization into the postcolonial era, where previous imperial ideas are outmoded.

	H-Net Review: Alan Gordon on Other Voices: Historical Essays on Saskatchewan Women
		Nadine Small's examination of Saskatchewan's Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire (IODE) during the Great War points to the efforts of affluent "Anglo-Saxons" to publicize women's place in the Empire and to strengthen the sentiments that bound women together around the Throne.
		The Daughters of the Empire were particularly active during the Great War of 1914-18, knitting, holding meetings, surrendering their sons and husbands for state service, and educating the "less patriotic" public.
		Although Small presents the Prairie Daughters as largely detached from their male counterparts, this interplay across the borders of gender and sex might have broadened her study and further enhanced our understanding of the deeply felt attachment to Empire held by many late-Victorians.
