Through Youthful Eyes: Idaho's Natural Resources and World War II | Idaho Experience

The impact that Idaho had on World War II is greater than most people know. To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the end to the war, four Idaho State University honors students have written a photo-centric book titled Idaho in World War II. Idaho Experience takes a fresh look at the war through the eyes of four young millennials and the professor who guided them through the process.

Explore how Idaho's natural resources allowed the state to contribute to America's war efforts.
