| Title: | Reel 11: Diaries, November 9, 1901 to August 15, 1908 |
| Authors: | Straight, Willard |
| Issue Date: | 17-Jan-2011 |
| Description: | The diaries vary in character and extent. The early books are not day-by-day records but occasional comments on his experiences, bits of self-analysis, and attempts at fiction based on his observations.
Later Straight often pasted in his diary carbon copies of detailed letters he wrote to friends. The diaries for the Russo-Japanese War period also contain a number of sketches.
In Mukden he kept a fairly systematic diary, recording his activities and naming his visitors and associates. There are occasional gaps, and some entries are very brief. |
