Pulitzer prize-winner Paul Green is best known for his nearly 100 plays for stage and screen, most notably The Lost Colony about the lost English colony on Roanoke Island, North Carolina.

Paul Green was a student at the University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill when the United States entered World War I in 1917. He put his studies aside and enlisted in the army. From the first day of his enlistment, he kept a diary of his experiences in this country and on the battlefields in Belgium. Using selections from Green's diary, Spence interspersed details from a conversation he had with the author in 1974, to create a picture of one soldier's life during World War I.

Abstract:
Throughout his life author Paul Green carried note cards in his pocket on which he would jot down words and phrases he remembered from his early years in Harnett County. The cards were filed and later became the basis of Paul Green's WORD BOOK: AN ALPHABET OF REMINISCENCE. From this his daughter Betsy Green Moyer, an expert photographer, has compiled the entries relating to flowers. Together with her co-editor, botanist Ken Moore, she has matched flower photographs with Green's comments. The result of the three-year project is Paul Green's PLANT BOOK: AN ALPHABET OF FLOWERS & FOLKLORE.
