Project and Contents Description
Publications distributed through the Federal Depository Library Program (FDLP) from 1939 to 1945. Covers all facets of the war, from military campaigns abroad to activities along the home front. The collection's individual pieces reflect the pervasiveness of the war effort, and the transformative effects of the conflict on all aspects of American society; taken as a whole, the broad coverage provided by these diverse materials helps contextualize the thousands of struggles -- large and small -- that were World War II.
