Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. In 1919, the United States Library War Service Committee published a comprehensive report on its monumental efforts to provide books to military service members during World War I. While by 1919 the war in Europe had ended, the demand for books and magazines from American service personnel stationed at home and abroad continued. The book chronicles the Committee's activities from July 1918 - June 1919, including the challenges and ingenuity required to meet the massive demand for reading materials by millions of soldiers, sailors, and marines during wartime. It highlights the tireless efforts of librarians, booksellers, and volunteers who ensured that troops had access to books and magazines for recreation and education. The report provides valuable insights into the role of libraries and literature in times of conflict and underscores the enduring power of books to uplift and inform.
