The Joseph M. Bruccoli Great War Collection at the University of South Carolina was founded in 1997 by Matthew J. and Arlyn Bruccoli and named for Professor Bruccoli's father, who was wounded in France during the conflict. An expansive research archive for the literary, historical, and cultural aspects of World War I from both British and American vantages, the collection is housed in the Thomas Cooper Library at the University of South Carolina campus in Columbia. At present, the Bruccoli Great War Collection contains over four thousand items, including such print materials as military training manuals, illustrated wartime magazines, trench newspapers, British novels and poetry of the war, letters and diaries of participants, scrapbooks and photo albums, posters, slides, and sheet music. Comprehensive in range rather than exhaustive in depth, the collection was expanded in 2002 through the incorporation of some five hundred books and documents formerly part of the Joseph Cohen Collection of World War I Literature, additions that include extremely rare work by Isaac Rosenberg, arguably chief among the Great War poets. Bruccoli Great War Collection at the University of South Carolina: An Illustrated Catalogue documents one of the great watersheds moments of history on both sides of the Atlantic and serves as a reference and resource for historians, researchers, and collectors alike.

From the Inside Flap:
"The Bruccoli Great War Collection impresses me enormously with the imagination and scope of its vision, as a scholar’s treasure trove of cultural and historical resources, much of it unusual and rare—contemporary writings, sheet music, popular artwork, and design. In telling the story of how this collection came into being, Professor Matthew Bruccoli's compelling introduction serves as valuable inspiration to all those who have been involved in similar endeavours to collect and preserve historical materials." —Hugh P. Cecil, honorary lecturer, University of Leeds, and trustee and cofounder of the Second World War Experience Centre, Leeds, United Kingdom
