Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book returns readers to the inland empires, vast states, and small towns of the Midwestern plains during World War II. The author focuses on the unique and untold stories of resilience, fear, and hope from the men and women who worked the land, factories, and local institutions of the region. Through historical context and firsthand accounts, the book discusses how Midwesterners faced the psychological, social, and geopolitical shocks bought on by the war, and the ways in which their lives changed throughout the conflict. The author examines questions of loyalty, race, class, and gender as they related to the war effort and the social transformations of the era. The war brought the Great Depression to an end, but the choices and experiences of the war years laid the groundwork for the major social changes and economic growth that would come in subsequent decades.
