DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR ONCE UPON A TOWN

What did you like most about this book?

Did you like this author's writing style? 

What emotions rose up in you as you read about this town?

Do you think it would have been "fun" to travel around and gather all this information and write this book?  Why or why not?

One of the veterans told Bob Greene that the North Platte Canteen was "an unexpected bouquet of nice people".  Have you ever experienced this or been a part of providing it for someone else?

How were you affected by that? How do you think you would have been affected if you were actually one of the servers at the canteen?  How about if you were one of the troops served?

In your opinion, how has America changed since the days of the Canteen?

Can you imagine what it took to pull this off?!  Washing the coffee cups, baking the cakes, etc.!
