Vintage Young American Patriots World War II

Vintage Young American Patriots World War II: Maryland And Delaware. The book was published by National Publishers Inc (Richmond, Virginia) and copyrighted in 1950. The book was compiled to provide information about American men and women who served in World War II. They differ from a number of similar sets in that most of these men and women survived the war. The Book includes a short account of the War’s effect on the state, with a section of photographs of wartime scenes taken by armed forces photographers. These are followed by biographies of the “Young American Patriots” from that state. The arrangement of the biographical section varies by state: they are either arranged alphabetically by name of soldier or sailor for the entire state, or are listed alphabetically by county and then by name of service person. Some biographies were received too late to place in the alphabetical arrangement, and so appear at the end of the book, as do any biographies for which no photograph was available.

Book is approx 8" x 1" x 10 3/4" and it weighs 2.78lbs. Is in good. vintage condition with some shelf-wearing on hard cover and has some discoloration on pages due to age.
