World War I Poetry: Woodbury Benjamin Collins 1882 1948
WAR SONNETS
Honolulu H.T.: Gurrey's Limited 1918. 631pp. 12mo. Drab wrappers printed label. A very good copy. First edition of the author's first book. After earning a medical degree in Boston and practicing in his native Maine for nine years Woodbury moved with his new bride to Honolulu in 1916 where he maintained a homeopathic practice for three years and was active in amateur literary and dramatic productions. In March 1919 he left the islands for San Francisco and after two years practice there he returned to New England. His war sonnets are interleaved with and often are responses to quotations from political military and literary writers Seeger Hagedorn Kipling Cicero Wells Bridges et al that are printed en face with them. Woodbury was not a combatant during the war but served as an examiner at the Honolulu Naval Station. OCLC locates some 20 copies but at this point one would be hard pressed to locate an actual printed original rather than a blurry p.o.d. [Gurrey's Limited] unknown books

American Civil War Letters
Woman's Handwritten Civil War Era Letters
Westhampton likely Massachusetts 1861-1864. Ephemera. Fine. Group of 13 manuscript letters black ink in tidy cursive addressed to "Hattie" who is perhaps in Springfield.

A few are somewhat faint but still legible -- otherwise condition is fine. <br/><br/>An interesting group of letters quintessential for their reports on the health of seemingly everyone in town and for their concern with the American Civil War. "I am taking a great interest in war matters feel curious to read the daily paper think the North will come off conquered and I hope without shedding Oceans of blood" she remarks in the earliest letter in the group. Some remarks from later letters include: "We heard that Bolton and Alvin Clark were sick at Annapolis and that Henry Smith is a prisoner at Richmond. Mother England blusters about terribly doesn't she Hope she isn't going to declare war against us."; "Our people have had no letters since the battle are expecting some daily. Edward Coyt of Huntington was one of the wounded. After the battle of Roanoke he wrote to his folks he'd seen enough of war."; "Our men A. P. Bridgman Davis Burt Bartholt Bissell Edward Delany Charles Land Henry Sulliver a fellow living at Capt Custs and an Irishman. So you see we send seven married men."; "Frank Hule was killed in the battle at Murfeesboro Dec 31st by the first fire of the Rebs"; plus a few more comments and names.
