Having recently watched Black Hawk Down (yes, we were the last two people to see it), I’ve taken an interest in my grandfather’s World War I diaries again. In addition to the diaries themselves that I’ve already transcribed, I have a stack of letters he wrote back home during the same time period. I’ve now finally started transcribing the letters, which could conceivably amount to more text than the diaries.
In addition to the fascination of reading letters written to and from someone I’m related to but never knew, it’s very interesting to see the differences in day-to-day life between 1918 and 2004.
