Inhaltsangabe:

A book detailing the buildings today that were present during the world war II years. "Fort Snelling inducted over 275,000 new soldiers during World War II and facilitated their discharge at the war's end. New units were activated and trained there, students learned to speak and write Japanese, and thousands of injured soldiers were treated at the Fort's hospital and clinics. But the old post's history stretched back to the 1820's, and even frontier era buildings were adapted to the needs of modern warfare. The historic structures remaining today have many stories to tell future generations if they can somehow be preserved."--from the back cover description.
