What Made Us Who We Are Today

This book is a fascinating glimpse into the lives of US military and civilian men, women and children during the World War II era. While historically accurate, the emphasis is on real people rather than a history of the war itself. The vignettes reveal a slice of life, the experiences of people living, working, and serving during wartime. The chapters are grouped around six US holidays: Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Patriots’ Day, American Gold Star Mothers’ Day, and Veterans’ Day. Dr. Robsman’s book is suitable for general audiences, veterans, civilians, readers of biography, and students of history.
