Description
It's the 1940s. World War II. A New England farm boy is growing up during wartime.
That's what Home Front: A Memoir from WWII is about. You'll share his experience - the blackouts, the rationing, the fears, the patriotism, and the unity everyone felt. As the men go off to war, you follow Douglas, our young narrator, as he grows to an obliged maturity, sharing with others, enduring the scarcity of the depression, the fear and patriotism during World War II and then the exuberance in that brief, post-war period when America felt safe and when the middle class was born.
After the war, with the GI Bill, VA loans, and fully stocked storeshelves,the country was all about getting back to normal. But, you'll learn, for some normal was gone. Home Front chronicles a farm family and how normal evaded its reach.
Home Front also includes Voices from the Home Front where you can learn about 37 Americans who share their home front stories in their own words.
