Book Description:
|
Provides a rare glimpse into the wartime experiences of one of the most well-respected sociologists of the twentieth century. Anderson, a keen observer of people, places, and events his entire life, joined the US Army in 1918 at the age of 29 and was sent to Europe to fight as part of the Allied Expeditionary Force. Keeping a journal was discouraged during WWI, thus Anderson's descriptions stand as a rare gem.
