Summary

This book examines the history of prisoner of war camps that operated in Nebraska during World War II. Melissa Amateis Marsh documents how thousands of German and other Axis POWs were detained across multiple camps throughout the state. The work explores the daily lives of prisoners, their interactions with local communities, the camps' operations, and their impact on Nebraska's wartime economy and society. Drawing on historical records and research, Marsh provides insight into this lesser-known aspect of the American home front during the Second World War.
