The sixty-four page book included photographs and brief descriptions of U.S. jobs where soldiers may find or return to employment. Each photograph&#8217;s description includes a reference to current a current vocational book with which the reader may familiarize about new vocational trends. At the end of the book is a four page bibliography of books cited (and seen in the four images below). Also during 1919, under Frederic J. Haskin, a nearly identical, paperback, revised edition of\u00a0<em>Your Job Back Home<\/em>\u00a0(titled <em>The Job Book<\/em>) was offered as a mail-order book from the Haskin Information
