Author Visit: Prairie Forge In-Person
What did Henry Doorly, Cornhusker football, and the patriotic spirit of Nebraskans have to do with the Allied victory in World War II? Find out in this talk from James J. Kimble, who will go behind the scenes of his research for Prairie Forge, the 2021 One Book One Nebraska title. You’ll step back into the dramatic home front in 1942, witness the scrap metal disaster that nearly derailed the Allied war effort, and see for yourself just why Nebraska was so central to winning the greatest war in history. Registration is requested and can be completed below.
Thank you to Humanities Nebraska and the Nebraska Cultural Endowment for sponsoring a portion of this program.
