Veterans' Voices: and Home Front Memories

By Elaine Thomas

In "Veterans' Voices and Home Front Memories," 63 World War II veterans and women who waited for their return share deeply personal stories. Coming of age during the later years of the Great Depression and the early 1940s, they willingly put their personal lives on hold to defend their country from December 1941 to August 1945. They all have ties to Fayette County, Texas, but their recollections represent an entire generation that pulled together in the greatest manifestation of patriotism this country has ever seen, doing whatever was asked of them despite the personal cost. "Veterans' Voices and Home Front Memories" won a 2019 Will Rogers Book Medallion Bronze Medal.
