Voices of War: Stories of Service From the Home Front and the Front Lines
By Tom Weiner
National Geographic, 336 pages, $30
Since its inception four years ago, the Veterans History Project, a department of the Library of Congress, has collected more than 50,000 oral histories from military veterans. Some of those histories are organized thematically (“Basic Training,” “Special Bonds,” “Coming Home”) in this volume, blending together into a story of America at war.
