Viewing these tapes, you are bombarded with the imagery of the time, from pleasant to horrific: the Hollywood canteen and Dinah Shore, Bob Hope touring overseas with the USO, Armed Forces Radio productions, Private Snafu cartoons, industry turned war machine, food and gas rationing, propaganda posters and comics, a segregated military, Japanese-American internment camps, Hitler, and the Bomb. We watch as the United States is thrust from its stark isolationist stance into a global conflict, emerging at war's end permanently entangled--for good or ill--in the affairs of Europe and Asia. By most accounts, America, in the midst of such turmoil, seemed strangely united in those years. Eric Sevareid leaves us with a poignant final question: "Do the pictures taken then show America as it was or as Americans wished it to be?" --Douglas Dalrymple
