My A. E. F.: A Hail And Farewell is a memoir written by Frances Newbold Noyes in 1920. The book is a personal account of her experiences as a volunteer with the American Expeditionary Forces (A. E. F.) during World War I. Noyes was part of the American Red Cross and served in France from 1917 to 1919. The book is divided into three parts. The first part describes Noyes' journey to France and her initial experiences with the A. E. F. She writes about the challenges of adapting to a new environment and the excitement of being part of the war effort. The second part of the book focuses on Noyes' work with the American Red Cross. She describes the different roles she played, including working in a canteen, driving an ambulance, and organizing entertainment for soldiers. Noyes also writes about the relationships she formed with soldiers and civilians, and the impact that the war had on their lives. The third part of the book is a farewell to the A. E. F. Noyes reflects on her experiences and expresses her gratitude for the opportunity to serve. She also writes about the challenges of returning to civilian life and the importance of remembering the sacrifices made during the war. Overall, My A. E. F.: A Hail And Farewell provides a unique perspective on World War I from the point of view of a volunteer. Noyes' writing is engaging and personal, making the book a valuable contribution to the history of the war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
