Hardcover. Condition: USED_GOOD. These scores of intertwining stories have been carefully culled from the monumental Veterans History Project, which has already accumulated some 30,000 collections including interviews, letters, unpublished memoirs, scrapbooks, and photographs preserved by the Library of Congress. Together they create a unique eyewitness record of 20th century America at war. Illustrated with 175 illustrations, this book celebrates the can-do spirit, sense of duty and sacrifice, and sheer stubborn courage that have seen America safely through one of the most tumultuous and fast-moving centuries of our history.
