Experience the emotional depth of America’s involvement in World War One through a series of 45 letters from a local soldier to his wife. These frontline love letters reveal the humor, dedication, tragedy, and love of the Lost Generation while giving a fresh perspective on the conflict that, 100 years later, remains deeply personal. Come join Hunter Haskins, a member of the MHC Historical Society, as he brings the story of the Paschals back to life. Hunter Haskins is the Assistant Director of the Salem Museum & Historical Society in Salem, just west of Roanoke. He is a 2021 graduate of Roanoke College with a double major in History and Political Science and a concentration in Public/Applied History.

His passion for history, and desire to work in that field, was affirmed by his happy experiences volunteering and interning with the Bassett Historical Center between 2019 and 2022. He lives in Salem.
