  • Description

    Most American children on the home front during the Second World War saw the enemy only in newsreels and the pages of Life Magazine, but from Pearl Harbor on, “the war”–with its blackouts, air raids, and government rationing–became a dramatic presence in all of their lives. Tuttle tells of one twelve year old boy who strode into an Arizona recruiting office and declared, “I don’t need my mother’s consent…I’m a midget.”) Former home front children recall as though it were yesterday the pain of saying good-bye, perhaps forever, to an enlisting father posted overseas and the sometimes equally unsettling experience of a long-absent father’s return.

American Babies : Their Life And Times In The 20th Century

  • American Babies : Their Life And Times In The 20th Century

  • Attribution

    Elizabeth A. Reedy

  • Publication Details

    Book, Praeger, 2007

  • Description

    In 1900, most babies were born at home. In the early years of the 21st century, the birth of a baby is a time of joy for most parents and extended families. Other programs, such as the Shepard-Towner Act, the Social Security Act, and Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” initiatives also focused attention on babies. By reviewing the events of the past century, Reedy hopes we can make even more of a difference in the lives of American babies in the century to come. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
