I loved this book! It was so inspirational and heartwarming to read about how this town gave so generously to mllions of service men heading to war; I loved how the entire town united together to accomplish such a great thing. And the troops were so touched by the kindness they received; so many of them remembered their few minutes in the town for all their lives. It really boosted morale and made an impact. I also found the book bittersweet, for it shows how small-town America is slowly disappearing. It was a simpler time back then. This book made me wish I could have been born a few decades earlier so I could have experienced it.
