" World War II and Nevada is a one-of-a-kind tome that covers the war from lend-lease to the bombing of Japanese cities through the eyes of the citizens of Nevada. It is a unique look at WWII that is valuable and adds greatly to the knowledge of the era. Weller has made a significant contribution to the history of Nevada." -- Claytee White , inaugural director of the Oral History Research Center for the University of Nevada, Las Vegas Libraries "This is the only book that takes such a broad-based view of Nevada during World War II. Weller writes authoritatively on the subject and does an excellent job of utilizing primary and secondary sources. With World War II and Nevada: The Silver State's Contribution to Victory ,, the author adds to and enhances the academic works and oral histories on the topic." -- Guy Clifton , 2022 Distinguished Nevada, author of Dempsey in Nevada and You Know You're a Nevadan, If .
