Viac o knihe
During World War II, Washington, D.C. transformed as its population swelled with women joining the workforce while men went to war. The city engaged in victory gardens, scrap drives, and faced rationing, with military personnel stationed throughout. New government agencies emerged, and the Pentagon was constructed in record time. This book presents nearly 200 archival photographs that document the city's wartime preparations, civic defense efforts, and the resilient spirit of its residents, highlighting significant events like VE and VJ Day celebrations.
