Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating look at the city of Buffalo, New York, during the early years of the First World War. It explores the transition of a community from peacetime complacency to active participation in a global conflict. The author meticulously chronicles the changing attitudes of the city's residents, from their initial indifference towards the war raging in Europe to their gradual awareness of the conflict's impact on their own lives. The book delves into the city's economic and social transformation, examining the burgeoning munitions industry, the mobilization of the National Guard, and the emergence of the "Four Minute Men" who used brief public addresses to promote patriotism and war bonds. You'll witness the anxieties of families and the brave efforts of Buffalo's citizens to support the war effort at home. It provides a poignant glimpse into a pivotal moment in American history, revealing the profound impact of war on a single city and its people.
