  • The Armed Services Editions and American Print Culture, 1943-1947
    Alexander H. Poole. “As Popular as Pin-Up Girls:” The Armed Services Editions and American Print Culture, 1943-1947. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S degree. April, 2009. 121 pages. Advisor: Barbara B. Moran. During the Second World War, the United States government collaborated with American publishers to provide servicemen with unprecedented access to reading material. Between 1943 and 1947, the Armed Services Editions project supplied 1,322 titles and nearly 123 million books in all genres, from classics to westerns. Using both primary and secondary sources, the following essay probes the interplay between culture and society, home front and theaters of war, as viewed through the lens of the Armed Services Editions. The project provides a case study, in short, through which to analyze what historians Carl Kaestle and Janice Radway call “print culture” between 1943 and 1947. The Armed Service Editions initiative reveals not only changes in modern book publishing and in modern book reading, but also documents larger trends in modern American culture, notably the ascendance of “middlebrow” culture during the second quarter of the twentieth century. Ultimately, the Armed Services Editions represent a valuable—yet often overlooked—chapter in American cultural history. Headings: Books and reading—United States—History—20th century. Popular culture—United States—History—20th century. World War, 1939-1945—United States. Literature—Appreciation—United States—History—20th century. Middle class—United States—History—20th century.

  • KIRKUS REVIEW How Books Raised Spirits During World War II. in 1941
    KIRKUS REVIEW How books raised spirits during World War II. In 1941, the American Army faced the challenge of training hastily convened troops and amassing basic supplies to wage an extensive war in Europe. Soon, the Army discovered another serious challenge: low morale. Far from home, cut off from family and friends, fearful and stressed, the new conscripts longed for distraction. “What the Army needed,” writes attorney Manning (The Myth of Ephraim Tutt: Arthur Train and His Great Literary Hoax, 2012) in this intriguing history, “was some form of recreation that was small, popular, and affordable. It needed books.” Financial straits made buying books impossible, so librarians volunteered to mount a book drive. In the first two years, the Victory Book Campaign received 6.6 million volumes, not all appropriate for young men. Knitting books and children’s literature, for example, were sent elsewhere or pulped. Despite complaints that hardcover books were too large and heavy to carry, books proved so popular that the Army decided to take over, establishing the Council on Books in Wartime. Its first project was publishing 50,000 copies each of 50 titles in small, lightweight paperback editions. A staff of readers made recommendations, and the council noted any that might “give aid and comfort to the enemy, conflict with the spirit of American democracy, or be offensive to any religious or racial groups, trades, or professions.” Despite these guidelines, more than 1,200 selections were sent to soldiers and Navy men, including novels (A Tree Grows in Brooklyn was a great favorite), mysteries, Westerns, adventure stories, biographies, poetry and a host of other genres.

I do not so much refute the difference between elite And mass culture, but insteAd show how even in their fictionAlity, those very cAtegories inform the very structure of how we understAnd the cAtegories of the Author, the book, And of modernism itself. ii For MAx And Harry- Sometimes All you get is the journey, And you two were the best part of mine. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing may be A solitAry Activity, but this project did not hAppen without support.
