MOLLY GUPTILL MANNING is a staff attorney at the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and sits on the board of editors of the Federal Bar Council Quarterly.

When America entered World War II in 1941, we faced an enemy that had banned and burned over 100 million books and caused fearful citizens to hide or destroy many more. Outraged librarians launched a campaign to send free books to American troops and gathered 20 million hardcover donations. In 1943, the War Department and the publishing industry stepped in with an extraordinary program: 120 million small, lightweight paperbacks, for troops to carry in their pockets and their rucksacks, in every theater of war.
Comprising 1,200 different titles of every imaginable type, these paperbacks were beloved by the troops and are still fondly remembered today. Soldiers read them while waiting to land at Normandy; in hellish trenches in the midst of battles in the Pacific; in field hospitals; and on long bombing flights. They wrote to the authors, many of whom responded to every letter. They helped rescue The Great Gatsby from obscurity. They made Betty Smith, author of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, into a national icon. When Books Went to War is an inspiring story for history buffs and book lovers alike.

评分 评分这是一段真实的存在。 第二次世界大战太平洋战争爆发后,美国援华空军飞虎队曾于1943年至1945年在昆明停驻,一时间云南成为美军力量较为集中的地区。美军随行中携带有不少“军供书”。70多年后,这些书的一部分辗转流传,仍然存于世上,直到最近又重见天日。发现这批书的,是本...
评分2017第38。二战时期美军如何运用图书提升士气。本书论述明显分为两个方面,一则强调图书对思想的传播,以及与纳粹的意识形态之争。一则描述了资金,出版,选题,分发等实务。很有意思的是,如同今日,前者属于鼓动情绪,引发关注的口号,后者是真正需要面对的问题。作为读者即...
评分我对二战时期美国出版行业的最初印象,源于小赫伯特·贝利的《图书出版的艺术与科学》,在讲当成本因素变化时,市场会随之变化,并且会让出版商会也作出适当的反应时,他举例说“在第二次世界大战期间,纸张奇缺,大学生人数也很少,但对通俗读物的需求却在增长,于是商业性的...
