Continuing last post's World War I soldier-life theme here's one that's a bit less humorous. The First Gas Regiment was the only offensive gas unit in the U.S. Army and lasted for just 18 months. Today of course a book about gas warfare is like a book promoting the value of DDT but really this is more a straightforward account. If anything it's a bit dull even for a regimental history.
Addison (a 1909 Harvard graduate) was the regiment's chaplain and was an active writer afterwards. He wrote a history of the Episcopal Church, on Ahmadiyya and religion in India, a study of medieval missionaries, and Ancestor Worship in Africa among many others. None of these appear to have been digitized.
