She brings alive the unknown but unparalleled efforts to win the war made by ordinary "Citizen Soldiers"--Farmers and city dwellers, lumberjacks and homemakers - who rolled up their sleeves to apply "can-do" ingenuity coupled with "must-do" drive. Their remarkable, largely volunteer efforts, carefully focused by university expertise and ubiquitous government propaganda, transformed everyday life and set the stage for the United States' postwar economic and political ascendance." --Book Jacket Added to collection customer.56279.3 HTTP:URL=https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=907001 Information=EBSCOhost
