If someone asks you: how did America win the Second World War? Your answer might certainly be: through their superior military strength. However, did you know that books also played a decisive role? Soldiers read armed services editions of books while waiting to land in Normandy; in the hellish trenches of battlefields in the Pacific; in field hospitals; and on warships. Books, as key ideological weapons, led America to the final victory of World War II. This is precisely the story “When Books Went to War” would like to share with you.
Molly Guptill Manning is a well-known American writer and lawyer, whose works can be frequently found in high-end journals like The Columbia Journal of Law & the Arts. She is also the author of ‘The Myth of Ephraim Tutt’. Once, while doing research, Molly found a volume of thank-you letters from American soldiers in WWII. These letters expressed their appreciation to the Council on Books in Wartime for providing books which lifted their spirits while fighting. Later, Molly decided to tell the moving stories behind these letters and published ‘When Books Went to War’.
