Binder. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. On offer is a manuscript journal that doubles as a study of infant care practices in 1941-1942. It is a meticulously kept record of the first 15 months of Michigan musician, conductor and radio personality, Charles Greenwell (1941-2020). The book was kept by parents, both Juilliard graduates, including opera singer mother, Pauline Elizabeth Bugg Greenwell (stage name Pauline Pierce) (1907-1990) , and his musician cum Michigan State University voice department chairman father, Gean Greenwell (1907-1982). BIO NOTES ON THE GREENWELL FAMILY AT THE END OF THE LISTING. Pauline, Gean, and their baby nurse, Marion Belt, all contributed to this journal, though it was mostly kept by Pauline. While the focus is on Charles and his development, the journal provides deep insight into the application of parenting advice of the time, forming an interesting case study on baby Charles and his parents. Pauline has also recorded a list of "articles needed for baby" and "layette to date", where every item requested and received for Charles is carefully noted. Pauline has also copied instructions from Dr. Wood with a recipe for baby formula, info on cod liver oil and the introduction of orange juice (when Charles was only one month old! ). A bonus in this fascinating journal is three pages of content written by Charles himself when he is a young boy. He has written out the lyrics for two songs (they seem to be originals, written at age 8) and a one page "autobiography" where Charles writes about himself at age 11. Excerpts follow: "I nursed Charles for the first time this morning, and the thrill is indescribable! ! He nursed right away, just as if he'd done it for months already" [Feb 11, 1941]. "Charles had his first taste of cereal today. 1 teaspoon of Pablum mixed with 3 tsp. Of formula. His formula is now 13 oz. Evap. Milk and 22 oz. Boiled water, with 1 ½ tablespoons Karo. What fun we had giving him the Pablum. He ate it like a little piggy, got it all over his face and hands because he tried to eat his hands at the same time he was eating the cereal and laughing all the while until we thought we'd have hysterics" [June 1, 1941]. "Today was Charles 6 mo. Birthday and we celebrated it with fried chicken, ice cream and cake. Alice and Giff and Ethel ate here for the dinner. Charles sat in his carriage and watched the whole proceedings. Charles pounds now on everything with his hands and squeals on a high note now rather than the low one" [Aug 10, 1941, written by Nurse Marion Belt]. "Wed the 10th he began to cough a bit and the next morning his nose was quite congestedThis condition existed for 2 days and on Saturday the 13th he still had signs of the congestion and coughing but Dr. Woods said it wasn't at all serious, so went ahead and gave Charles his first shots for whooping cough. Charles was so dear and bravePoor darling - it turned out to be that his little upper arms were dreadfully sore to the touch (from the hypos).Dr Wood had us give Charles a mild sedative (Pheno-Barbitol) so that he slept soundly all night. And this morning his cold even seems better" [Sept 14, 1941]. ".Charles is coming along fine except he has 101.5 degree fever as a result of his vaccination, but he goes a mile a minute and is more adorable than I've ever known him to beThe Dr. Prescribed ? Of an aspirin tablet before. Charles went to bed tonight (put it in some apple sauce) and to keep him on fruits and liquids until the fever is gone" [May 10, 1942]. ".When I have nothing to do, oh, say on a rainy day, I like to recall incidents that happened to me when I was little. I'llnever forget when I had my [tonsillectomy]" [Charles Greenwell, June 14, 1951]. This journal would make a phenomenal addition to a collection focused on pediatrics, maternity or family studies. It provides a fantastic contrast to the clinical recommendations for infants today, and there is a lot of opportunity to analyze how and why drastic changes in parental recommendations have occurred. It is also a special piece of music history, kept by a family of musicians, all of whom made a large impact on the Michigan music scene in the mid-to-late 20th century.
