Bøker av Beth Bailey

This is the story of the sexual revolution in a small university town in the quintessential heartland state of Kansas. Bypassing oft-told tales of radicals and revolutionaries on the coasts, Bailey argues that the revolution was forged in towns and cities alike, as "ordinary" people struggled over boundaries of sexual behavior in postwar America.

Bailey tells the story of the all-volunteer force from the 1960s through the Iraq War. Based on archival research and interviews with Army officers and recruiters, ad executives, and policy makers, America's Army confronts political, moral, and social issues a volunteer force raises for a democratic society and for the defense of our nation.
