An outstanding book showing how America came together to support the servicemen and women who fought the Axis. The book contains individual stories from a wide range of people: adults and children, men and women in uniform and the civilians who supported them on the home front. It covers the Red Cross Girls at home and just behind the front lines, the entertainers who flew and sailed around the world to bring a bit of home to our people overseas, the men and women in foreign lands who welcomed our troops, and the women who flew planes and trained pilots and never received the credit they deserved.

After reading this book, you will wonder what happened to an America which pulled together for victory. Well, a lot of it is still there, but it is the "me first" Americans who seem to get all the news coverage today.

This is a beautiful and heartfelt book of personal memories of the World War II years. There are lots and lots of stories and many many wonderful pictures. This book is a salute to the veterans of World War II, and to those who fought for victory in a million different ways on the home front. These heros pulled together, and won, when a world at war demanded our best.
