内容説明
In America, Rossevelt, and World War II, Sean Dennis Cashman provides a comprehensive review of American military strategy, politics, and social history from the end of the Great Depression through the tragedy and heroism of war, as America moved to a new position of global dominance. The book traces the rise of Hitler and Mussolini and explains Japanese ambitions in Southeast Asia. It charts the course of American and Allied strategy in Europe and North Africa and the imaginative island-hopping campaign that regained the Pacific from the Japanese.
The book describes the domestic upheaval that America experienced in the war as millions moved across the country to take part in the war effort; as African-Americans began to reassert their voices for civil rights; as Japanese-Americans were interned; as Hollywood and radio helped to promote the war effort; and as the federal government reorganized its bureaucracy to make ever-more efficient its mighty war machine. It pays tribute to the sterling effort of Britain in 1940 and 1941 to maintain the war against Hitler when all its allies had been conquered by Germany and to the valiant heroism of the Russian people who turned the tide of the war against the Third Reich at Leningrad and Stalingrad.
