5.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and captivating, 24 Aug 1998
By A Customer
This book departs from the tradition of reciting all the statistics and battle histories of the war and concentrates on the "human" side of things. Sure, there are some "hard facts" presented, but they are there to support the stories of how the folks at home fared under rationing, what the induction centers were like, what the various types of rations were (A-rations, B-rations, etc.), and so on. To someone fascinated by World War II but born long after it was over, this was a welcome insight into the "soft side" of the war.
