“Last night Mel and I were talking about some of the adjustments we’ll have to make to our husbands’ return. I must admit I’m not exactly the same girl you left–I’m twice as independent as I used to be and to top it off, I sometimes think I’ve become ‘hard as nails’. . . . Also–more and more I’ve been living exactly as I want to . . . I do as I damn please.–
[These tough words from the wife of a soldier show that World War Ii changed much more than just international politics.]

Drawn from a large archive of wartime correspondence, Since You Went Away collects hundreds of letters written by women of all backgrounds and ages from all over the United States: from Midwestern farms to the Hawaiian Islands, from young girls to anxious mothers. The letters are sometimes touching, sometimes anguished, and always packed with intimate glimpses of the World War II era.
