Síntesis:
"From blind dates to whirlwind romances to long separations, highlights stories of couples who met or married during World War II. Each of the the 30 stories begins with a WWII-era song title and concludes with a look at wartime couples in their twilight, as well as when they were so hopeful and young and determined to save the world. Illustrated with photographs from the 1940s as well as current ones of each couple, War Bonds offers readers a glimpse of bygone days, as well as a poignant glimpse of our own" --Dust jacket flap.
