Title: Love in a Time of War: Diaries and Letters from World War I. This book is a story of World War I, told primarily in the diaries and letters of a young Belgian woman and an American man. The woman, Germaine Attout lived with her family throughout four years of German occupation. The man, Francis Wickes, came to Belgium in 1915 as a member of the Commission for Relief in Belgium, led by Herbert Hoover. He writes of this relief work and subsequently of his service with the U.S. Army in Paris. Included are eyewitness accounts of Belgian civilians, unarmed, resisting the occupation and of the Belgian army, under it's great King, Albert I, defending their country against overwhelming odds. The book contains background material about this period of history and over 50 contemporary photos It is being published as the centennial of World War I approaches. This is a love story too, told by Francis as it began in the midst of war, told by Germaine as it continued in a long married life.

More than thirty-five years have passed since my father, returning from the scene of Cummins' murder, related the circumstances. With Mat Bailey, the stage-driver, with whom Cummins had traveled that fatal day, he had ridden over the same road, had passed the large stump which had concealed the robbers, and had become almost an eye-witness of the whole affair. My father's rehearsal of it fired my youthful imagination. So it was like a return to the scenes of boyhood when, thirty-six years after the event, I, too, traveled the same road that Cummins had traveled and heard from the lips of Pete Sherwood, stage-driver of a later generation, the same thrilling story. The stump by the roadside had so far decayed as to have fallen over; but it needed little imagination to picture the whole tragedy. In Sacramento I looked up the files of the Daily Record Union, which on Sept. 3, 1879, two days after the event, gave a brief account of it. There was newspaper enterprise for you An atrocious crime reported in a neighboring city two days afterward Were such things too common to excite interest? Or was it felt that the recital of them did not tend to boom the great State of California?
