"Albert Coryer, the grandson of a fur trade voyageur-turned-farmer, had a gift for storytelling. Born in 1877, he grew up in Prairie du Chien hearing tales of days gone by from his parents, grandparents, and neighbors who lived in the Frenchtown area. Because his mother's first language was English and his father's French, Albert was bilingual as well as bicultural. Throughout his life, Albert soaked up the local oral traditions, including narratives about early residents, local landmarks, interesting and funny events, ethnic customs, myths, and folklore. Late in life, this lively man who had worked as a farm laborer and janitor drew a detailed illustrated map of the Prairie du Chien area and began to write his stories out longhand, and gave an interview to a local historian and a folklore scholar. The map, stories, and interview transcript provide a colorful account of the old fur trade town of Prairie du Chien in the late nineteenth century, when it was undergoing significant demographic, social, and economic change. They provide a window into the ethnic community comprised of the old fur trade families, Native Americans, French Canadian farmers, and their descendants. Editors Mary Antoine and Lucy Murphy have collected these narratives into four sections: stories centering on agricultural life, tales about the more wide-ranging adventures and travels of his ancestors, a collection of ghost stories from the time, and the 1951 interview transcript. An introduction and a headnote accompanying each section offer historical background and context for Coryer's writings"--Provided by publisher.

World War II could not have been fought and won without the crucial role played by the U.S. Merchant Marine. Crewed by civilian seamen in peacetime, and carrying much of the nation's ocean-borne commerce, the Merchant Marine is often considered the "fourth arm of defense" in wartime. And, as such, it provided the vital logistical support for beachheads in all theaters of operation around the world during the war. The 20 Merchant Marine veterans of World War II featured in this oral history served in all theaters of war, and most had at least one ship - some two - torpedoed, bombed, shelled or mined out from under them. Some became prisoners of the Japanese for the duration, working on the infamous River Kwai Bridge. Many spend time in lifeboats or on flimsy rafts under extremely harsh conditions after the loss of a ship. And one - Donald Zubrod - endured 42 days in a lifeboat with several others before their eventual rescue very close to death's door. Credited during the war for often paying for their service "with some of their own blood" as they brought bombs, bullets, and butter to others, American merchant mariners actually suffered a loss rate that was a close second to only the Marine Corps during the conflict. Yet, their role still remains little known and understood. The collection of eye-witness accounts will go a long way to helping set the record straight at long last.
