Lisa L. Ossian's study is a welcome addition to this collection because it adds insights about the lives of children in this volatile period. Americans who grew up during the war were a generation sandwiched between the so-called Greatest Generation and the Baby Boomers. Their lives deserve the careful and sensitive attention Lisa Ossian provides in this important study.\"\" - Kriste Lindenmeyer, author of\u003ci\u003e The Greatest Generation Grows Up: American Childhood in the 1930s\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"University of Missouri Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51534994407767,"sku":"9780826222343","price":22.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780826222343.jpg?v=1755858539","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/the-forgotten-generation-9780826222343","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
