Named WWI soldier material is especially desirable to collectors and genealogists because it allows potential research into the individual serviceman and his wartime service. Small inspirational booklets like this were often carried by soldiers while deployed overseas.

The booklet shows typical age and use with light staining, handling wear, and aging to the cloth cover and pages, but remains complete and readable.
