The vivid voices that speak from these pages are not those of historians or scholars.
They are the voices of ordinary men and women who experienced--and helped to win--the most devastating war in history, in which between 50 and 60 million lives were lost.
Focusing on the citizens of four towns--Luverne, Minnesota; Sacramento, California; Waterbury, Connecticut; Mobile, Alabama-- The War follows more than forty people from 1941 to 1945.
Woven largely from their memories, the compell.
