The book War Service Of The American Library Association (1918) by Theodore Wesley Koch is a historical account of the American Library Association's efforts to support the troops during World War I. The book details the establishment of the ALA's War Service Committee, which was responsible for providing books and reading materials to soldiers in training camps and overseas. The book highlights the challenges faced by the committee, including the difficulty of shipping books to Europe and the shortage of materials due to the war effort. The author also describes the impact of the ALA's efforts on the soldiers, including increased morale and improved literacy rates. The book includes photographs and illustrations of the ALA's work, as well as letters and testimonials from soldiers who benefited from the program. Overall, War Service Of The American Library Association (1918) is a fascinating look at the role of libraries in supporting the troops during World War I.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
