Book Review of The Victory Club

The Victory Club

I loved this book. I was a child during WWII but can remember so much about the everyday living - the hopes, the dreams, the prayers, the rationing, the victory gardens,the banners that hung in the windows of those who had loved sons and daughters and husbands serving in the military (and the sadness at seeing the blue stars changed to gold). A blue star indicated that their loved one was serving in one of the services; the gold stars indicated that their loved one had been killed. The patriotism in this country during that era has been unmatched. This book really took me down memory lane to a time that should never be forgotten.
