PRE-WAR TO POST-WAR EXPERIENCE ON THE HOME-FRONT

In a minimum of 2 pages, characterize the pre-war to post-war experience on the home-front. Write from the perspective of a real-life person that would have experienced this era, such as a home town, family member, local landmark, religious institution, or civic leader. Your essay must discuss the relationship of this person’s experience to the time period/event, and must include: reaction to British v. German naval battles; what changed because of the movement from isolationism; the experience of the local populations and varied demographics, including African Americans, women, and lower classes; assess the relevance of your subject’s concerns about the war’s impact on the international community; the war’s economic impact; and compare/contrast pre/post war experience. To complete this assignment, a minimum of two (2) reputable sources must be used, cited, and referenced, only one of which can be an assigned or provided text or source.
