Homefront books are few and far between. Building a good homefront library takes time and effort. Sources are hard to locate and many books have single small printings and then vanish. This page is designed to help collectors and historians identify and locate these sources. Knowing what exists or existed is the first step. Finding them is the second. Sources are listed in modified bibliographic format. If you know of others not listed here, won't you please drop us the info so we can expand this valuable archive ? Where locations are known, links are provided for direct ordering...
