Excerpt from War Record of the Town of Islip, Long Island, New York: World War, 1917-1918 This book originated in a desire to show the gratitude felt by the people of the town of Islip toward the young men and young women who helped to make the world safe for democracy. In January, 1919, Mr. Perry S. Wicks, President of the Southside Bank, published a letter in the Bay Shore Journal suggesting that it would be eminently fitting for the Town of Islip to publish a memorial of the Great World War in the form of a book giving the records of the men from this vicinity and setting forth the various local activities incident to the war. In August Mr. Wicks appeared before the town board and asked for an appropriation of four thousand dollars for such a memorial. The board gladly laid the matter before the voters, and in November the appropriation was voted. Mr. Wicks was appointed to have full charge of the compilation of the records and the publication of the memorial. This book is the result. It is to be regretted that out of some nine hundred service men the records of only about four hundred fifty could be obtained. Not a few because of false modesty or because of a misconception of the purpose of the memorial declined to furnish their pictures or to give details regarding their service. Through no fault of their own, about half of these nine hundred men were in the United States when the armistice was declared. These men were every whit as patriotic, every whit as brave, as the men who had already had opportunity to show what they could do overseas. While we are honoring the man who saw active service in France, let us not forget that the other man did all that was required of him and thus proved himself a good soldier. We owe them both a debt of gratitude that can never be discharged. The compiler of this work is under great obligation to the many persons who have aided him in collecting data, or who have prepared the various articles that appear over their names in this memorial. To mention by name all who have helped would be impossible. The work of preparing such a record as this memorial contains is tremendous. The amount of detailed information given makes it almost certain that errors may have crept into the record, yet the compiler dares to hope that the book will be found to serve a real purpose and that his labor of love will prove not to have been in vain.

With the centennial of the First World War rapidly approaching, historian and bibliographer James T. Controvich offers in The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide the most comprehensive, up-to-date reference bibliography yet published. Organized by subject, this bibliography includes the full range of sources: vintage publications of the time, books, pamphlets, periodical titles, theses, dissertations, and archival sources held by federal and state organizations, as well as those in public and private hands, including historical societies and museums. As Controvich’s bibliographic accounting makes clear, there were many facets of World War I that remain virtually unknown to this day. Throughout, Controvich’s bibliography tracks the primary sources that tell each of these stories—and many others besides—during this tense period in American history. Each entry lists the author, title, place of publication, publisher, date of publication, and page count as well as descriptive information concerning illustrations, plates, ports, maps, diagrams, and plans. The armed forces section carries additional information on rosters, awards, citations, and killed and wounded in action lists. The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide is an ideal research tool for students and scholars of World War I and American history.
