Produktbeschreibung

In this book, World War II veterans compare their wartime experiences-as soldiers, pilots, "code talkers," and prisoners of war-to on-screen portrayals of the war in Hollywood films. In addition, two women-real life "Rosie the Riveters"-compare depictions of women and the home front at wartime with their experiences.
