This careful transcription of the diaries of J. Irving Maxson opens the door for researchers to a new era - the early twentieth century - and a new office of Rhode Island - Westerly. The diaries are the simply survivors of l years of diary-keeping, the rest having been lost in the 1938 Hurricane. A descendant of the Maxson family unit which had lived in Westerly for two hundred years, J. Irving Maxson was deeply involved with the family unit building company, Maxson & Co. of Westerly which congenital many of the grand houses, public buildings, and hotels in southern New England. He was deeply rooted in his family, community, and church. A prominent man, he took a leading office in his customs, representing Westerly in the General Assembly and serving on innumerable boards. He and his family unit worshipped and socialized with a large grouping of friends and relations from the Pawcatuck Seventh Day Baptist Church in Westerly. Travel, summers at the embankment, yacht racing, vaudeville-J. Irving really enjoyed life, never imagining how hands his security could slip away. The shifting economic tides of the early twentieth century and some questionable partners brought down Maxson & Co. by 1910. The visitor sold, J. Irving set out to reinvent himself and did information technology over and over for the rest of his life. Most diaries are like a play performed with only ane set and a very limited cast, only non this ane. To discover work J. Irving traveled to Cuba, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut, moving his family and dwindling possessions with him. He ran a fruit plantation in Republic of cuba, managed shipyards during Globe War I, skippered a steamer between Connecticut and Rhode Island, and captained a crippled ship in the Caribbean. In each of these places he was meeting new people and writing most them in his diary. Whatever misfortunes he suffered, he never gave up. It is a story of bravery and love.

A thoughtful introduction sets the scene and provides readers with an understanding of the family structure. Much patient inquiry went into identifying many individuals named, and consummate name index makes information technology easy to notice references. Genealogists will be peculiarly interested in the ties that linked Sabbatarians from Westerly with those in New Jersey, Wisconsin, and upstate New York. All-time of all, many unique family photographs make the people and times come to life for the reader.

Jane Hoxie Maxson was one of the founders of the Maxson Family Association and has served as its secretary and historian.
