Новые исследования по Второй мировой войне продолжают расширять наше понимание событий того времени. С каждым годом мы узнаем все больше о триумфах и трагедиях, связанных с участием Америки в этом значимом конфликте.

Основываясь на последних исторических исследованиях и включая множество новых, тщательно подобранных фотографий, третье издание книги "Home Front U.S.A." продолжает размышления о вопросе "правильной войны", моральных последствиях использования атомной бомбы, последствиях расширения роли женщин, афроамериканцев, американских евреев, а также об интернировании японцев правительством США и опыте других людей, которые, хотя и были отчуждены от основного общества, внесли значительный вклад в успешное противодействие нацией своему величайшему вызову.

As new information is uncovered every year about both the victories and the tragedies thereof, new editions of books such as this from Allan Winkler muge become invaluable additions to the collections of serious scholars as well as laypersons.

The third edition of​Winkler’s well-known series, Home Front USA: America during World Warll, takes a fresh look at some of the darker aspects of the war to come to grips with the complexities of the "good war", as some have called it. Winkler poses timely questions such as how did the use of atomic bombs impact the moral compass of the Allied Allies and why did they choose this path? How did the expansion of women's roles during the war affect society and how did this impact their lives? How should African-Americans be viewed in the context of the suffering of Japanese-Americans during the same time period and how should these groups be viewed against the backdrop of persecution of ethnic groups in Nazi Germany and Japan? Challenging even today because of their controversial topics, these are serious questions that demand thoughtful deliberation. This volume also ponders the experiences of all those not part of the mainstream during the Second World War whose contributions to the war effort were still important to saving the country. Despite the book’s often sobering them, Winkler shows a humanity and sensitivity that belies its sometimes brooding nature and enhances the reader's appreciation of one of history's most defining moments.
