This Week on History Happy Hour: World War II was unprecedented in its scope and ferocity. The heroism of the men and women who won the war may be well documented, but we know too little about the pain and hardships the veterans endured upon their return home.

We’ll discuss this with David Nasaw, author of the new book The Wounded Generation: Coming Home After World War II.

David Nasaw is a professor of history at the City University of New York City. He has written ten books, two of which, Andrew Carnegie and The Patriarch: The Remarkable Life and Turbulent Time of Joseph P Kennedy, were finalists for the Pulitzer Prize. He has also written for The New Yorker, The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal among others.
