The only available historical dictionary devoted exclusively to the
1940s, this book offers readers a ready-reference portrait of one
of the twentieth century's most tumultuous decades. In nearly 600
concise entries, the volume quickly defines a historical figure,
institution, or event, and then points readers to three sources
that treat the subject in depth. In selecting topics for inclusion,
the editors and authors offer a representative slice of life as
contemporaneous Americans saw it - with coverage of people;
movements; court cases; and economic, social, cultural, political,
military, and technological changes. The book focuses chiefly on
the United States, but places American lives and events firmly
within a global context.
