WWII Voices: American GIs and the French Women Who Married Them

These oral histories give voice to American veterans who chose to reside in France after World War II. And to the French women who married them. Through their memories, we learn to understand the French war brides who followed their GI husbands to the USA, with the attendant joys and difficulties involved in adapting to life in America in the 1940s. American GIs and the French Women Who Married Them is the first in a series of oral histories dedicated to Veteran Voices by historian Hilary Kaiser.
