Arranged by subject matter, the book includes paintings of acts of war, the wounded, the survivors, the prisoners, the ruins, the dead, the workers, the homefront, religion, recreation, and victory. Included with the narrative are 106 photographs, an 8 page color insert, and a foreword by Edward Reep, a war artist -- correspondent who was the winner of a Guggenheim Fellowship for his work.
