Life "Our Finest Hour: The Triumphant Spirit of America's World War II Generation"
“World War II presented the United States with an impossible challenge - one that could cost countless lives in any single harrowing instant. Yet we plunged in, body and soul, and somehow found moments of tenderness and warmth.
Here are the stories of those who fought ‘the good war.’ Their voices reveal an indomitable spirit, a peculiarly American optimism, even a weary recognition of the war’s unstoppable horrors. Throughout it all, U.S. citizens bucked up and carried on - at home and overseas.”
Hardcover with dust jacket, like new condition.
