Product Information
An inventive study of relations between the National Guard and the Regular Army during World War II, Guard Wars follows the Pennsylvania National Guard's 28th Infantry Division from its peacetime status through training and into combat in Western Europe. The broader story, spanning the years 1939-1945, sheds light on the National Guard, the U.S. Army, and American identities and priorities during the war years. Michael E. Weaver carefully tracks the division's difficult transformation into a combat-ready unit and highlights General Omar Bradley's extraordinary capacity for leadership--which turned the Pennsylvanians from the least capable to one of the more capable units, a claim dearly tested in the Battle of the Hürtgen Forest. This absorbing and informative analysis chronicles the nation's response to the extreme demands of a world war, and the flexibility its leaders and soldiers displayed in the chaos of combat.

A significant contribution to understanding how the U.S. Army organized, trained, and prepared for war., A significant contribution to understanding how the U.S. Army organized, trained, and prepared for war.--Edward G. Miller, author of Nothing Less than Full Victory: Americans at War in Europe, 1944-1945, Weaver has written an absorbing book that includes fascinating details about the pre-war National Guard, its relations with the Regular Army, and the uncomfortable amalgamation of the two caused by the national emergency. Weaver's research is wide-ranging and his writing skill is admirable; his analyses and conclusions are all reasonable and supported by the evidence he presents., "A significant contribution to understanding how the U.S. Army organized, trained, and prepared for war." -- Edward G. Miller, author of Nothing Less than Full Victory: Americans at War in Europe, 1944--1945, Weaver has written an excellent account of the Pennsylvania National Guard's role in the European campaign. He has also demonstrated that there is still much important work to be done on the U.S. Army's participation in the 'good war.', "Overall, Guard Wars is an excellent addition to any World War II library. The book is a study in preparedness, and many of its lessons are relevant today." -Journal of Army History, Fall 2011, "A significant contribution to understanding how the U.S. Army organized, trained, and prepared for war." Edward G. Miller, author of Nothing Less than Full Victory: Americans at War in Europe, 19441945"Michael E. Weaver's Guard Wars does a fine job of bringing the Twenty-Eighth Infantry Division to life. The book begins by focusing on the National Guards' relationship with the regular army as well as the division's interaction with Pennsylvania society and institutions.... Overall, Guard Wars is an insightful study of a National Guard division in World War Two. Weaver does not limit himself to the Twenty-Eighth Infantry Division's role in combat, but instead spends half of the book investigating the "Bloody Buckets" training and its influence on Pennsylvania society. The book is well researched and heavily cited." - Alex Lovelace, H-War, August 2012, "Overall, Guard Wars is an excellent addition to any World War II library.
