Book excerpt: Excerpt from Yates County in the World War: 1917-1918 In presenting this volume, to commemorate Yates County's part in the World War, the author realizes more fully than anyone else its many imperfections. Having devoted the better part of a year to collecting the material in hand, we can only hope that our effort will, in a measure, fulfill the purpose for which it is intended. Great care has been exercised in compiling the record of those who were engaged in this war. This list contains only those actually credited to Yates county. Many who might have claimed this as their home went into service from other pieces and are credited to the county from which they were inducted. In some respects this is unfortunate; but it seemed best to the author not to include their records in this work. Our judgment in this matter may be criticized, but this volume is intended to be a historical record - a reference book for future use - and for this reason the lines have been more closely drawn than they otherwise would have been. We feel that some special reference should be made to the Penn Yan Chapter of the American Red Cross. While the record of this noble band of workers, most of whom are women, as set forth in detail elsewhere in this book, speaks for itself, the fact that much of this record was made under the direction of officers other than those whose pictures appear in the group of Red Cross officers, seems to call for a word of explanation. In an undertaking of this kind there must necessarily be some limitations as to the number of illustrations used, and for that reason, only the officers first chosen by the Red Cross are included in this book. Those having direction of the work at later periods of the war are entitled to a large share of the credit for the achievements of the Red Cross. All performed a noble service, and their work did much to lighten the burden of the boys in camp and at the front. Many were the sacrifices made that the boys might be made more comfortable, and the work of the Red Cross will always be gratefully remembered. It is not the purpose of the author to sit in judgment and try to decide "who is who" in the matter of Yates County's heroes and workers in the world war. The records and other information which we are publishing are from official sources. Whatever is lacking to make this work complete was beyond our reach. Having did out best, we dedicate our humble efforts to "the boys who went." "The broken soldier, kindly bade to stay Sat by his fire, and talked the night away; Wept o'er his wounds, or, tales of sorrow done. Shouldered his crutch, and showed how fields were won."

Download or read book The Great War written by Kellen Kurschinski and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2015-10-23 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great War: From Memory to History offers a new look at the multiple ways the Great War has been remembered and commemorated through the twentieth century and into the twenty-first. Drawing on contributions from history, cultural studies, film, and literary studies this collection offers fresh perspectives on the Great War and its legacy at the local, national, and international levels. More importantly, it showcases exciting new research on the experiences and memories of “forgotten” participants who have often been ignored in dominant narratives or national histories. Contributors to this international study highlight the transnational character of memory-making in the Great War’s aftermath. No single memory of the war has prevailed, but many symbols, rituals, and expressions of memory connect seemingly disparate communities and wartime experiences. With groundbreaking new research on the role of Aboriginal peoples, ethnic minorities, women, artists, historians, and writers in shaping these expressions of memory, this book will be of great interest to readers from a variety of national and academic backgrounds.

Download or read book Remembering World War I in America written by Kimberly J. Lamay Licursi and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poised to become a significant player in the new world order, the United States truly came of age during and after World War I. Yet many Americans think of the Great War simply as a precursor to World War II. Americans, including veterans, hastened to put experiences and memories of the war years behind them, reflecting a general apathy about the war that had developed during the 1920s and 1930s and never abated. In Remembering World War I in America Kimberly J. Lamay Licursi explores the American public's collective memory and common perception of World War I by analyzing the extent to which it was expressed through the production of cultural artifacts related to the war. Through the analysis of four vectors of memory--war histories, memoirs, fiction, and film--Lamay Licursi shows that no consistent image or message about the war ever arose that resonated with a significant segment of the American population. Not many war histories materialized, war memoirs did not capture the public's attention, and war novels and films presented a fictional war that either bore little resemblance to the doughboys' experience or offered discordant views about what the war meant. In the end Americans emerged from the interwar years with limited pockets of public memory about the war that never found compromise in a dominant myth.
Download or read book The United States in World War I written by James T. Controvich and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the centennial of the First World War rapidly approaching, historian and bibliographer James T. Controvich offers in The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide the most comprehensive, up-to-date reference bibliography yet published. Organized by subject, this bibliography includes the full range of sources: vintage publications of the time, books, pamphlets, periodical titles, theses, dissertations, and archival sources held by federal and state organizations, as well as those in public and private hands, including historical societies and museums. As Controvich’s bibliographic accounting makes clear, there were many facets of World War I that remain virtually unknown to this day. Throughout, Controvich’s bibliography tracks the primary sources that tell each of these stories—and many others besides—during this tense period in American history. Each entry lists the author, title, place of publication, publisher, date of publication, and page count as well as descriptive information concerning illustrations, plates, ports, maps, diagrams, and plans. The armed forces section carries additional information on rosters, awards, citations, and killed and wounded in action lists. The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide is an ideal research tool for students and scholars of World War I and American history.
