In what ways did neither the northern nor the southern women contribute greatly to the war effort?

It could depend on which war, but women did not actually go to battle. Women took care of things on the home front.


What was the biggest contribution of women to the war effort?

It is difficult to answer this question without knowing which war you are asking about. There were women who contributed to a number of wars, in the US and in other countries. For example, in World War II, women who worked in the factories making munitions and war supplies were often referred to as "Rosie the Riveter." Many sources say she was a real woman named Rose Will Monroe. Another important woman who contributed to the war effort was Jacqueline Cochrane-- she was a pilot, and she flew supplies to the troops, as part of a women's aviation corps called the WASPs. And another important woman was Kate Smith-- she didn't fight, but as an entertainer (a very popular singer in that era), she raised millions for war bonds, and did a number of benefit concerts to support the troops.


How did women contribute to the war effort in world War 2?

Women contributed much to the war effort. While men were at the war front, women had to take the jobs usually reserved for men. Women began working the factories and creating the guns, bullets, aircraft, you name it! Some women even dressed up as men to try to fight for their country. Both women and men contributed much to the Allied victory.

Why didnt Lincoln issue emancipation to slaves in northern states?

Because it would have had the same disastrous effect on Northern farmers as it did on Southern ones, and would have hampered the war effort. It confirms that Lincoln was not passionately anti-slavery. Emancipation was a war measure, not principally a crusade.
