Kenneth: A Collection of Letters Written by Lieut. Dating from His Enlistment and During His Services in the Aviation Corps of the United States Navy. Kenneth [edited and arranged by his mother] Title: Kenneth: A Collection of Letters Written by Lieut.

Dating from His Enlistment and During His Services in the Aviation Corps of the United States Navy Publication: Chicago: Privately printed, 1919 Edition: First Edition. About very good in the publisher's navy cloth. Some soiling to boards, and some very faint attendant waviness to a number of pages (though there are no tidemarks). Still a clean, sound copy. One small stamp to one preliminary leaf.

Quite uncommon privately published volume, which reprints the letters from Kenneth MacLeish (brother of Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Archibald) to his family while in Europe fighting the First World War. Kenneth MacLeish died in combat, shot down over Belgium.
