When men were called to arms in World War II, and sent to military camps across the United States, millions of wives followed their husbands, renting rooms in stangers' homes near camps, and finding scarce employment in nearby towns in order to be with their husbands as long as possible before they were shipped overseas.
Against the backdrop of war, of friends and brothers dying on battlefields, June Stephenson, one of the "followers," speaks for many wives recounting the anxieties they shared, never knowing which day would be the last day they would ever spend with their husbands. Being shipped overseas carried with it the great possibility of never returning.
"Followers" is a love story, reflecting the lives of millions of WWII wives. A never-before-told part of 20th century history.
