A unique experience

As one who grew up in the UK during World War II, "Postcards from World War II" provides an unexpected insight into what conditions were like in America. It never occurred to me that anyone outside Europe had price controls, food rationing and other restrictions. The text is not just a chronicle of events, it complements the numerous evocative postcards to give the reader a unique experience. Many are difficult-to-read scribbles, but are transcribed at the back so their all-important words can be read with ease. The publishers have provided high quality reproductions with unexpected clarity. This is a fine book.
