Ajouter au panierSoftcover. Etat : Very Good. No Dust Jacket. On offer is the WW1 homefront diary of young Edith E Sanders, later Gleason (1894-1986) of Cavendish, Vermont. Edith lived on a farm with her family. She kept this diary at age 23 in 1917, while her future husband, Charles Jerome Gleason (1891-1989) , was deployed to France as a membe…r of the 102nd Machine Gun Battalion in the U. S. Army. [For more on Edith and Charles, see BIO NOTES at the end of the listing]. Edith's daily entries are detailed. Through them, we get an excellent look at the daily life of this young woman at a time of significant disruption to the United States. For the most part, Edith's diary focuses on her daily life. She is constantly sending and receiving letters from "Gleason", who is her future husband, Charles. She uses the Memoranda section to record her weight and to keep detailed monthly accounting of her earnings and expenses, which is a highlight of the diary as few young diarists keep such great track of their income and spending. The following excerpts give a sense of the flow of Edith's writing: ".Dr. Buxton called in forenoon give me examination. Nothing serious. Just called in afternoon with medicine. Park came on evening train. Minnie came on morning train" [March 10]. "Fair, lovely. Sweep & cleaned. Birdie & I went down street, also in evening to walk with Rose. Card from Francis B. Sent letters to Mable & [Charles] Gleason. Papa & Mama went to Ludlow" [May 31]. "Fair. Ironed. Crochet. Down street in afternoon, Called on Alice W. Papa went to Ludlow after horses. Letter from Gleason from France. Sent him letter. Card from Mabel" [Oct 31]. ".Mother, Ruth and I went to Ludlow in afternoon. Dr. Stevens pulled my 12 lower teeth" [Dec 6, 1917]. ".Done up work. Lucy had cold. Papa took me to Heald's. Rode down with Roy. Called to Grandma J. Down street in evening. Sent letters to Mabel and Gleason. Package from Addie Gleason [Charles' mother]" [Dec 25]. At the very end of the diary in the Letters part of the Memoranda section, Edith writes: "First letter from Gleason after he went to France October 31st". While she never journals her feelings for him, their burgeoning love is clearly noted. For a social historian, this diary paints a very detailed picture of what life was like for this young woman a century ago in America. For a Gender Studies program, it gives an excellent look at the daily life of one young woman in a small rural American community a lifestyle that was likely quite similar to that shared by many other women of her time. BIO NOTES: Edith E. Sanders Gleason was born to parents Ida Grimes and James Sanders. They were a farming family from Cavendish, Vermont. On July 10, 1919, Edith married Charles Jerome Gleanson (1891-1989). They had one child together, Mildred (later Fitzgibbons) (1923-2021). Edith worked at the Gay Brothers Woolin Mills as a specker and Charles worked as a town farm manager and then at the Woolin Mill and Bryant Chucking Grinder Co. They were members of Cavendish Baptist Church, the American Legion Auxilliary and the Myrthle Rebekah Lodge in Proctorsville. Charles was a decorated soldier, having won the Purple Heart, Verdun and Victory medals. This small diary measures 4.75 inches by 3.25 inches. The covers are in good condition with some bending due to age and use. The spine and binding are in good shape. There are about 122 pages in the diary and it is 90% complete. The handwriting is legible.; Manuscripts; 32mo 4" - 5" tall; 122 pages.

Ajouter au panierEtat : Good. On offer is the absolutely fascinating and deeply detailed wartime homeland diary of Paul James McGahan. McGahan starts as a simple orderly, and works his way up to private 1st class, and then through hard work and tremendous diligence, shows himself to be an exemplary soldier, and gets commissioned and ends up as a… 1st Lieutenant shortly before WW1 ends. This diary is remarkably detailed, with almost every day written as a fully detailed entry. Most impressive are the months of hard training that McGahan does, with each training schedule written out in its entirety, so the reader gets a full scope of just how difficult and intense the military training is. The diary is signed "Paul James McGahan. 1325 Mt. Vernon St. Philadelphia, PA." The same page also has a detailed breakdown of all the ranks that McGahan has during the course of 1918, where he earned them, and from what time period he held the rank. In the beginning of the diary, McGahan is in New York, on leave from the military and enjoying the sights and sounds of the Big Apple: going to museums, visiting friends, wining and dining all over the city. "January 3, 1918. Spent afternoon with Dr. Cohen who pronounced me wonderfully fit and said the systolic murmur of the heart was very faint. Declared I showed great improvement over previous years exams. Dined at Harlem. Visited Margaret and Edward for (?) Got back to Pen & Penal club and as hotels were all filled, had to sleep on chairs by log fire." By January 10th, McGahan is back in active duty. "Came off guard at 4:30 and was told I would be head orderly starting in the morning." After January 15th, there are not many entries for the next two months. A notable exception is on February 22, when McGahan writes, "Was made a private 1st class by Lieutenant E W Madeira commanding Headquarters Troop." There are no entries for the entire month of March, and only a few for the end of April. He mentions at the end of April returning home from Annapolis to Philadelphia, so it is assumed that McGahan was at Annapolis training as a private. At the very end of April, McGahan goes to Camp Meade in Middletown, Pennsylvania. His training seems to take an immediate toll on him, as he develops "two huge boils" on each of his legs. "Could hardly sit on train!!!!!" he writes. Two days later he is in the Base Hospital. The next week have only one sentence under each entry. "In hospital." He is released on May 8. On May 17th he writes, "Long delays at troop but Glenn and I as the 2 successful candidates departed to the school. He took artillery. I took the infantry course. Very busy evening getting belongings together to stand inspection in A.M. Was assigned to third Platoon Third Company and became (?) instead of Private 1st Class." In Camp Meade, McGahan is recommended an advanced infantry course. He spends the next month writing very detailed and specific diary entries of his days learning and training. It is obvious the army way of thinking is getting to him, as the days are divided into specific increments of time and tasks. "May 24, 1918. Very busy day. School of soldier 7.30 to 8.30. Conference on care of equipment 8.30/9.30. Platoon drill 9.30 to 10. School of Squad 10 to 11. Was a corporal for about 15 minutes. 11 to 11.30 bayonet drill. Capt. gave me some personal instruction. Running drill as an instructor 1.15 to 2.15. Hike with gun & light pack 2.15 to 3.15. Conference on Instructor Guard Duty to 3.45. School of company to 4.45. Hard work preparing for inspection. No chance to look at books." Most days in May and June are like this. Intense training and schooling. For a bit McGahan is waylaid with a knee problem, but it quickly is dressed and resolves itself for him to train some more. These months are incredibly interesting to see the tremendous amount of training that went into becoming a commissioned officer in the army. Near the end of June, McGahan has his final exam for the infantry course, which he passes. He describes t. Manuscript.
