Samenvatting
Home Before Dark is a loving look back at the Great Depression. Along with vanishing jobs, long lines at soup kitchens, loss of the family farm to foreclosure, there were neighborhood five-person baseball games, floating on home-made rafts, jump-rope. Rockland High School Class of 1942 graduated into World War II; two classmates had already died at sea. Women became WAACS, WAVES, SPARS, Rosie the Riveter, air raid wardens, defense plant workers and, more traditionally, keepers of the Home Front. Suddenly life was filled with air raid drills, trains jammed with servicemen, ration books, movie stars in USO canteens, wartime romances,while everyone waited for the war's end so the men could all come home.
