Off Duty: A Dozen Yarns for Soldiers and Sailors

by Wilhelmina Harper

In my work here at Pelham Bay Camp with our wounded from abroad, with our sick boys who did not get “over there,” and with the well but often lonely men, who frequent our library, I have discovered a distinct need for some collection of the best stories, especially adapted to the “genus homo.” To meet this want, I have prepared this compilation for our soldiers and sailors, and incidentally for all to read who will.
