Description:
Delaware, Ohio, 1929-1930 & 1937-1939. This particular set of journals, was, at first glance, an archetypal account of small town living in the midwest. The overlooked aspect of the detail accounts that Rose shares is the considerable amount of social connection that was present at the time. There is not a day that goes by that Rose is not visited or goes visiting, either by a friend or family member or both. For instance, the first two entries note: January 1st, 1929: Spent the day at Ellis (son). Rained a little, cloudy. 2nd: Charley (husband) & I went to Mrs. Bucks Funeral in the afternoon. Mrs. Leudman & Josephine Grimes called funeral". Every day, Rose delights us with the weather, what chores she accomplished and who came to visit or what club/committee she looked in on. We know that Rose was a school teacher before she was married and her penmanship exhibits this skill. The last couple of pages of the 1939 journal are written by a different hand. The writer, her granddaughter, carries on her… Read More

Description:
c. early 1980's. Hardcover. Brown boards, lined paper. Good. 70 pages. 23 x 18 cm. The first nineteen pages are filled with handwriting in cursive - incredibly neat, precise recipes such as tarts, oatmeal cookies, puddings, with some savory dishes sprinkled in. After the first nineteen pages, there are blank pages until a two page segment in the same handwriting which seems to indicate this woman is worried about someone in her life that is addicted to Crack Cocaine. The writer appears to have been watching a Phil Donahue segment on the issue and will be writing in to get the transcript. There is also numbers and prices for treatment. Three recipes laid in. Spine rubbed.

Description:
1923-1924. Carlton Clarence Curtis (1864-1945) was an American Botanist who published Nature and Development of Plants, 1907. A long trip that must have been a sabbatical, Professor Carlton took a year to travel the Mediterranean, North Africa, and the Caribbean to study the Greek system of vine cultivation, plant life in Palestine, Egypt, and Africa, and the tropical plants of the Caribbean. Joining the professor was his wife and sister-in-law. The trip launches on the French ocean liner, Roussillon, with the first stop being Rouen, France, and then a train to Paris. A fun side note, we can see our diarist is in awe of the coffee as he highlights Cafe au Lait and Espresso many times! After a trip down to Marseilles, there is a boat to Athens. The professor writes about the great Greek societies of the past but is struck by the horrendous conditions of the war refugees he encounters. The trip takes the travelers to Delphi, Crete, Cairo, Thebes - cruising the Nile, Jerusalem, Galilee, Nazareth,… Read More

Description:
1848-1851. Sewn binding. Brown leather, hand sewn binding. Good. 16 x 11 cm. This journal belonged to Laue Jensen Dixon (once written Lauety), who was a member of the 10th Infantry Battalion from 1848 to 1851, after which he became part of the Gendarmerie. Dixen appears to have traveled around Denmark and Germany and was most likely part of the First Schleswig War (1848 - 1851), also called the Three Years' War, between southern Denmark and Northern Germany - over the Duchies of Schleswig, Holstein and Lauenburg, in which Denmark was ultimately victorious. Almost every page has a drawn-in margin on the top and left side. On the top, he writes the month, year, and some version of "Journal of Laue Jensen Dixon" along with his battalion and company number. Each entry is demarcated by what we believe is the first letter of the day of the week and the number of the day. Written in chronological order, Dixen changed companies a few times: 1848 to August 1849 he was with the 44th Company. August 1849 to… Read More
