In 1932, less that fifteen years after proving itself a world power in the Great war, the US could muster it's entire active duty army in Chicago's Soldier Field with room to spare. Yet, within months of the December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, the USA emerged as the mightiest armed force on the face of the planet, a place held ever since. This remarkable turnaround is not the miracle many popularly believe, and in this book noted historian Eric Hammel tells for the first time the full story of America and it's amazing transformation into the 'Arsenal of Democracy'. From finding the political willpower to necessitate this change, to the nuts-and-bolts of where and how to build factories, to men volunteering to fight in combat, training and equipping troops, Hammel shows the preparation, plans made, and success of this explosion in military strength.
