From the back cover: "During World War II, American soldiers from every city rolled through North Platte, Nebraska on troop trains, en route to Europe and the Pacific. The tiny town transformed its modest railroad depot into the North Platte Canteen- a place where soldiers could enjoy coffee, music, home-cooked food, and friendly conversation during a stopover that lasted only a few minutes."
