Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Rations for Pennsylvanians: The Story of the Operations of the Federal Food Administration in Pennsylvania; Including Personal and Biographical Sketches of Its Officers and Members, With Dramatic, Humorous and Unusual Episodes in the Experience of County Administrators During the Wo This volume is not intended to be a statistical record of the work of the Federal Food Adminis tration in Pennsylvania; a record that necessarily would'be replete with prosy facts, arid figures, and dull reports of no striking value from the human interest standpoint. While a complete roster of volunteer chiefs, directors and adminis trators is given not every county is represented in the narrative. It was not so intended origi nally. There are counties in which no incidents outside the commonplace occurred; in others no reports were filed, and personal requests for in formation failed to elicit a response. These are omitted. There also may be disappointment that the names of volunteer assistants who rendered splendid and patriotic service are not included. This was found to be impossible, not alone because it would have defeated the purpose of the work, but because a list of all Food Administration volunteers in Pennsylvania would make a respectably sized volume in itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I guess you all are wondering where I am May. Well many miles away and settled at last and ready for some hard work. The sooner we get into it the quicker it is going to be over and all admit that it is up to America to finish the job and what I have been able to hear, they think it will be over in two or three months. Well the sooner the better now that we have come this far. Have sure traveled some and will have loads to tell you when I come home."--Lt. W. Ellsworth Gregory. Letters from soldiers to local newspapers during wartime had been popular since the Civil War, but World War I marked the end of this practice, as most letters were highly censored to keep the names of cities and landmarks from the public in an effort to keep any military intelligence from the enemy in World War I. This work is a collection of letters, stories, and oral histories of Pennsylvanians in World War I. The letters and stories compiled here were published in local newspapers, and now give readers a rare look at what their writers experienced in the trenches, in the air, on the sea, in the hospitals, and on the home front during the war.

Download or read book The Pennsylvania Reserves in the Civil War written by Uzal W. Ent and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-24 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until its soldiers mustered out of service in mid-1864, the Pennsylvania Reserve Division was one of only a few one-state divisions in the Union army. Known as the Pennsylvania Reserves, or simply the Reserves, the division saw action in most of the major battles of the Civil War, including Mechanicsville, New Market Crossroads, Second Bull Run, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, the Wilderness, and Spotsylvania Court House. This history chronicles the division's service from its organization in May 1861 through June 1864, when most of its soldiers reached the end of their service commitment. The book includes short biographical sketches, most with photographs, of the Reserves leadership. Throughout, excerpts from letters, journals, diaries, and books from more than 150 members of the Reserves provide a personal perspective on the action and reveal the human side of battle.
