Summary
"Describes a community's diverse and extensive efforts from 1917 to 1920 to welcome and support young soldiers arriving at Camp Devens, Massachusetts, for basic training and, later, for deactivation after the war. One family maintained a "Soldier Book" in which many of the soldiers recorded personal data and diverse feelings about what might lay ahead and what happened as they actually experienced the war."--Provided by publisher
