""Dere Mable: Love Letters of a Rookie"" is a collection of fictional love letters written by Lieutenant Edward Streeter during World War I. The letters are addressed to his girlfriend, Mable, and they detail his experiences as a young soldier in the trenches. The book is written in a humorous and lighthearted tone, despite the serious subject matter, and provides a unique perspective on the war from the perspective of a young soldier. The letters cover a wide range of topics, including military life, homesickness, and the challenges of maintaining a long-distance relationship. Overall, ""Dere Mable"" is a charming and entertaining read that offers a glimpse into the lives of soldiers during World War I.1918. Read them-and live with the Rookie through all his perplexities, through all his amusements, through all his work, live with him and laugh with him-and at him! For genuine humor nothing written in recent years surpasses them. Streeter and Breck were both with the American Expeditionary force in France when this was written.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
