An annotated edition of the 1923 war memoir of a young Catholic priest in France from the author of A Canadian Nurse in the Great War.Benedict Joseph Murdoch's The Red Vineyard was a captivating autobiographical tale of a young man's experience as a chaplain during the First World War.As a young Roman Catholic priest from Chatham, New Brunswick, Murdoch became chaplain to the 132nd Infantry Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF), serving in Europe from 1916 to 1918.

Murdoch is exceptional in relating his combat stresses and his own signs of an ever-deepening condition of PTSDwell before discussions of veterans' mental health were commonplace. Hebb includes never-before-revealed details, including a letter from Murdoch's RC military chaplaincy superior stressing Murdoch's mental state and his need for a significant rest.More than a war diary, A Canadian Chaplain in the Great War offers an exceptional window into the world of the time.

First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. pictorial paper cover, vii, 191 pages : illustrations, portraits,"More than two thousand Canadian women served as army nurses overseas during the First World War. The opportunity to read a diary written by one of these women--a document which was, strictly speaking, not supposed to be kept in the first place--is a unique privilege. A Canadian Nurse in the Great War grants a peek, through the diary of Ruth Loggie, into a little-known moment of our history. It also offers a glimpse into forbidden territory--women at war. Loggie's diary provides a daily commentary on life as she experienced it and as the events of the Great War unfolded. How did she cope? What were her thoughts as she lived through what she knew were world-altering events? Raw, fresh, unedited, and immediate, A Canadian Nurse in the Great War is a special document, and a welcome companion to Hebb's earlier books, Letters Home: Maritimers and the Great War; 1914-1918, and In Their Own Words: Three Maritimers Experience the Great War."-- Provided by publisher Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall.
