What I’m READING: When Books Went to War: The Stories That Helped Us Win World War II by Molly Guptil Manning. My sister found this ebook a few weeks in the past and instantly informed me about it. I’ve a lifelong love of books, and this one is a treasure.

Outraged librarians launched a marketing campaign to ship free books to American troops and gathered 20 million hardcover donations. And in 1943, the Struggle Division and the publishing trade stepped in with a rare program: 120 million small, light-weight paperbacks for troops to hold of their pockets and rucksacks in each theater of warfare.
