New Hampshire Remembers WWII Mike Pride, Co-editor, We Went to War More than six decades following the end of WWII, thirty-eight Granite Staters recall their personal stories from the largest military undertaking in human history. Originally published as a regular feature in the Concord Monitor, these firsthand accounts have been compiled in a volume that illustrates the compelling personal dimension of America's role in the Second World War. Ken Burns has praised We Went to War saying, "What a wonderful, moving collection of memories and stories - the basic DNA of the greatest cataclysm in history. This is the war undistracted, unmediated by the sentimental. This is the real stuff."
