The Letters sat in several boxes, some bound in bundles with
ribbons, some in their original envelopes, but more lay about
loosely. A few were written in pen on fine stationery while others
were scribbled in pencil on lined school paper or on the letterhead
stationery of various stores and newspapers. More than a century
had passed since the passionate declarations of love, jealousy, and
despair flew back and forth between two young lovers, Josie Chafee
and Salem Hammond. The story of Josie and Salem resonates today for
their life-long affair exhibited the burning commitment, the
soaring emotion, and the self-sacrificing ideals that characterize
truly great love stories. Salem and Josie were neither rich nor
famous, but lovers in any age can see in them and what they created
together during their courtship and marriage that special and
magical quality they defined as being "all in all" to each other.
Fortunately, they wrote all about it. Frank A. Cassell has drawn
together in a stirring history the drama of intense love, daunting
challenges, and eventual triumph played out against the backdrop of
small town life in southern Indiana at a time of great social and
economic change in the nation as a whole.
