Beck considers the effects of bombing and sometimes actual fighting in the streets and towns in which people lived, and the policies of individual governments that attempted to encourage and retain support for the war effort in varying ways.Beck, Earl R. is the author of 'European Home Fronts, 1939-1945' with ISBN 9780882959061 and ISBN 0882959069.
