Portland, Oregon: Metropolitan Press, 1919. Hardcover. Very Good. Boards in blue cloth with gilt title on spine and front cover. Small blemish on front free endpaper, else internally clean. No statement of publication date, but likely 1919 or 1920. 23 pages. This short volume consists of an essay written by Lambert Wood for a geology course he took at Williams College (Williamstown, Mass.), which his professor sent to his mother, the notable author Elizabeth Lambert Wood, following his death. Lambert was killed in action while commanding a company during an advance in the Aisne-Marne Offensive, Soissons, France. The first few pages provide an introductory account of his decorated war service, a one-page tribute from another soldier, and a sympathetic letter of condolences written by Lambert's geology professor, Herdman Fitzgerald Cleland. Lambert Alexander Wood (1895-1918) of Portland, Oregon.
