World War I and Jefferson County, West Virginia: Military

Autor Horn, James Francis
en Limba Engleză Paperback

Fifty years after Jefferson County found itself wedged between the Union and the Confederacy, President Woodrow Wilson declared war on Germany and the Central Powers.

Suddenly towns like Shepherdstown, Charles Town and Harpers Ferry once again prepared for war, this time an ocean away. Civilians supported the cause by donating to the Red Cross, and the county's large agricultural community produced food during rationing. More than five hundred Jefferson County natives enlisted, while more than three hundred additional soldiers came from college institutions within the county.

Historian James Francis Horn recounts the struggles and triumphs of local communities during the Great War.
