The American People in World War II: Freedom from Fear, Part Two (Oxford History of the United States Book 9)

The American People in World War II is a gripping narrative that explains how the nation agonized over its role in the conflict, how it fought the war, why the United States emerged victorious, and why the consequences of victory were sometimes sweet, sometimes ironic.

This Pulitzer Prize-winning book analyzes the determinants of American strategy, the painful choices faced by commanders and statesmen, and the agonies inflicted on the millions of ordinary Americans who were compelled to swallow their fears and face battle as best they could.

With a compelling narrative and invaluable analysis, this book is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the trials and victories through which modern America was formed.
