Monographs","Dr. Donald Horward, a native of Pennsylvania, received his B.A. at Waynesburg College, his M.A. from Ohio University, and his Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota.  He joined the faculty at Florida State University (FSU) in 1961.  Since his arrival on campus, over 16,000 students have been introduced to Napoleon and the French Revolution in his classes through the Institute on Napoleon and the French Revolution.  Graduate students were quickly attracted to the field and by 1963 the first master's degree was awarded. Three years later, the first Ph.D. graduated in Napoleonic history from FSU.\n  Dr. Horward was awarded the Distinguished Professorship in Military History at West Point and  taught  over  6,000  cadets  there. He also held  the  Edwin Conquest  Eminent Scholar Chair at Virginia Military Institute and taught hundreds of cadets in Lexington.He has written or contributed over  twenty  volumes  and  almost  sixty articles in scholarly journals, delivered  over 200  papers  and  throughout  the  U.S.and  Europe,  and  his contributions have been recognized by decorations from six countries.\n  A total of 101 doctorates and M.A. theses were completed under Dr. Horward's direction, making FSU the most prolific center for the study of Napoleon in the U.S. A unique aspect of the Institute program has been its relationship with the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.  Seventeen officers, destined for the history faculty at West Point, have been trained in the Napoleonic period at the Institute.  This is particularly appropriate since a large segment of the Military Art Course, required of all cadets, focuses on Napoleon and his system of operations.\n  Dr. Horward was the recipient of the first university-wide teaching award, and received five additional awards for excellence in teaching, including the title of Distinguished Teaching Professor.  He lectured at universities throughout the U.S., the Smithsonian on several occasions, and gave presentations in Europe at such universities as Frederick Schiller University in Germany, Charles University and Masaryk Universities in the Czech Republic, Cambridge University and Southampton University in England, the University of Budapest in Hungary, and the Borodino/Mazajsk Center, Russia.\n  In 1998, Dr. Ben Weider established at Florida State University the first chair devoted to the Napoleonic period in the U.S. and Dr. Horward was designated as the first chair holder. Dr. Weider also established a chair in the French Revolution and four scholarships for the study of Napoleon  at  FSU.  Soon thereafter, Baron  Roger Jomini,  descendent  of Napoleon's famous strategist, contributed funds  for  student scholarships. Dr. Proctor Jones provided substantial support for student grants to do research in Paris,and generous scholarships were established by Dr.Skip Vichnessand  Dr.George  Knight, graduatesof the Napoleonic program  at  FSU.\n  For  his  work  in  the  Napoleonic period,  Dr. Horward  was  decorated  by the  French, American,  and  Portuguese and recognized  by  the  Czech  Republic  and  Spanish governments.  He waselected to the  Portuguese Academy of History in1991 and named a Grand Officer of theOrder  of Infante  Dom Henrique (Prince Henry the Navigator).  In 2001, he was honored  by the  Napoleonic Alliance as the first John Elting Scholar \"for his extraordinary contributions to the study of Napoleonic History.\"  He received  the Renaissance  Francaise  Award in 2010, but his most distinguished award was given by France, The Legion of Honor,  in full ceremony at West  Point in 2002.\n  Much of the current research on Napoleon in the United States has been carried out by Dr. Horward's former students.This is closely related to his success in amassing the volumes of the Napoleon Collection at  FSU and his influential role in sustaining and expanding the Consortium on Revolutionary Europe. In addition to the thousands of  students he has taught in his graduate and  undergraduate classes at FSU,  the U.S.Military Academy at  West  Point, and other universities, his former students have introduced thousands of their students throughout the United States to the Napoleonic era.\n  After 44 years of distinguished service, Dr. Horward retired in 2005. The Institute and its students, the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection, the Ben Weider Endowment opportunities, and a series of other fellowships comprise a rich legacy - one that Florida State University is proud to share with its community of scholars.\n The Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at Florida State University \nThe creation and growth of the French Revolution and Napoleon Collection at Florida State University was a direct result of Dr. Horward's efforts. In 1961 there were some 250 volumes in the collection. As a result of his 28 trips to Europe doing research  and searching for books, as of late 2012 the collection includes over 20,000 volumes, some from collections as those of King Ernest August of Hanover and Achille Murat, King of Naples. It is among the most extensive in the country. The Collection attracts students and scholars from through the U.S. and Europe.\n  Of the 48 Ph.D.s and 52 M.A.s based primarily on the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at FSU,as of late 2012, 42 books have been published and almost a thousand articles have been produced in scholarly journals.  Doctoral students who have completed their research in the Napoleon Collection have taught at scores of universities and colleges from California  to  New York.  Six of their volumes have been awarded the International  Book Prize of the International Napoleonic Society for the  best book published in Napoleonic history in a particular year.\n  The Collection has provided the basic research and degrees for fifteen officers who have taught Military Art and Napoleonic history at theUnited States Military Academy,West Point. Many have taught at the US Command and Staff College at Fort Levenworth, Kansas, the Army Command College at the Von BraunCenter, Huntsville, Alabama, the Naval Post Graduate School at Monterey, California, the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island, and the Air ForceCommand  and StaffCollege in Montgomery,  Alabama.  Others have occupied senior command positions in Rome, Afghanistan, Iraq,and South Korea as well as throughout the United States. In addition, the Napoleon Collection has proved to be a significant source of strategic, logistical, and tactical  information for officers who taught tens of thousandsof cadets at West Point.\n  Scholars from throughout the United States and Europe have traveled to FSU to work in the Napoleon Collection to complete their research, contributing to hundreds of publications. Inaddition, the Collection became the basis of  the  most  complete  bibliography on Napoleon and the French Revolution that exist in any language by one of our graduates. Oneof Dr. Horward's students, Major Mike Bonura, published a  volume with NYU Press in 2012 , Under theShadow of Napoleon , which traces  the extraordinary impact the Napoleonic system of  War has had upon the American military system, from President Thomas Jefferson to the onslaught of the Nazi Blitzkrieg in 1940.\n \nNote written by Burt Altman, C.A., University Librarian/Archivist","General Jean-Jacques-Germain Pelet-Clozeau Papers, Special Collections \u0026 Archives, Florida State University Libraries, Tallahassee, Florida.  http://purl.fcla.edu/fsu/MSS_94-3","The Donald D. Horward Papers are composed primarily of the operational and financial records of the Institute on Napoleon and the French Revolution created by Dr. Horward in 1990, and the conference files of the Consortium on Revolutionary Europe, also founded by Dr. Horward, in 1971. The Institute Records comprise proposals for the Institute at Florida State University (including a proposal to the French government for Institute support); Institute Newsletters; International Napoleonic Society materials (Ben Weider Literary Awards); Ben Weider Student Scholarships, and files documenting Dr. Horward's involvement with Napoleon screenplay and television productions. The Consortia and Conference files include extensive correspondence with Dr. Horward and his colleagues about the various consortia and the Wellington Congresses and the International Congress on the Iberian Peninsula.\n \tThe collection also includes Dr. Horward's professional files, which comprise addresses, awards, committee files, correspondence, research materials, speeches, writings related to Dr. Horward's scholarship and that of his students, and publications related to the Napoleonic Era. Materials in his professional files include speeches he delivered at Florida State University, the Pelet Conference, Peninsular War Conference, VMI, and the War College at West Point; Florida State University Press Committee on which he served; starting the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection; Ben Weider's activities; teaching materials (slide transparencies) used by Dr. Horward in his West Point classes; and research materials concerning the Duke of Wellington from the British Museum and Public Record Office.\n \tPublications include catalogs used by Dr. Horward in building the Napoleon and the French Revolution collection; a selection of Napoleonic  journals, both popular and scholarly; and several scholarly monographic works, such as Dr. Jean Sarramon's  La Guerre de l'Independance de la peninsule Iberique contre Napoleon , which Dr Horward, collaborating with his colleague William R. Johnson in 1967, used in his research.","Select materials from the Horward Papers have been digitized and are available through the  FSU Digital Library .","All requests for permission to quote, publish, broadcast, or otherwise reproduce from manuscripts must be submitted in writing to the Director of University Libraries.  Permission for publication is given on behalf of the Florida State University Libraries as the owner of the physical items and is not intended to include or imply permission of the copyright holder, which must also be obtained by the researcher.","Professional files of Dr. Donald D.

Dr. Proctor Jones provided substantial support for student grants to do research in Paris,and generous scholarships were established by Dr.Skip Vichnessand  Dr.George  Knight, graduatesof the Napoleonic program  at  FSU.\n  For  his  work  in  the  Napoleonic period,  Dr. Horward  was  decorated  by the  French, American,  and  Portuguese and recognized  by  the  Czech  Republic  and  Spanish governments.  He waselected to the  Portuguese Academy of History in1991 and named a Grand Officer of theOrder  of Infante  Dom Henrique (Prince Henry the Navigator).  In 2001, he was honored  by the  Napoleonic Alliance as the first John Elting Scholar \"for his extraordinary contributions to the study of Napoleonic History.\"  He received  the Renaissance  Francaise  Award in 2010, but his most distinguished award was given by France, The Legion of Honor,  in full ceremony at West  Point in 2002.\n  Much of the current research on Napoleon in the United States has been carried out by Dr. Horward's former students.This is closely related to his success in amassing the volumes of the Napoleon Collection at  FSU and his influential role in sustaining and expanding the Consortium on Revolutionary Europe. In addition to the thousands of  students he has taught in his graduate and  undergraduate classes at FSU,  the U.S.Military Academy at  West  Point, and other universities, his former students have introduced thousands of their students throughout the United States to the Napoleonic era.\n  After 44 years of distinguished service, Dr. Horward retired in 2005. The Institute and its students, the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection, the Ben Weider Endowment opportunities, and a series of other fellowships comprise a rich legacy - one that Florida State University is proud to share with its community of scholars.\n The Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at Florida State University \nThe creation and growth of the French Revolution and Napoleon Collection at Florida State University was a direct result of Dr. Horward's efforts. In 1961 there were some 250 volumes in the collection. As a result of his 28 trips to Europe doing research  and searching for books, as of late 2012 the collection includes over 20,000 volumes, some from collections as those of King Ernest August of Hanover and Achille Murat, King of Naples. It is among the most extensive in the country. The Collection attracts students and scholars from through the U.S. and Europe.\n  Of the 48 Ph.D.s and 52 M.A.s based primarily on the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at FSU,as of late 2012, 42 books have been published and almost a thousand articles have been produced in scholarly journals.  Doctoral students who have completed their research in the Napoleon Collection have taught at scores of universities and colleges from California  to  New York.  Six of their volumes have been awarded the International  Book Prize of the International Napoleonic Society for the  best book published in Napoleonic history in a particular year.\n  The Collection has provided the basic research and degrees for fifteen officers who have taught Military Art and Napoleonic history at theUnited States Military Academy,West Point. Many have taught at the US Command and Staff College at Fort Levenworth, Kansas, the Army Command College at the Von BraunCenter, Huntsville, Alabama, the Naval Post Graduate School at Monterey, California, the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island, and the Air ForceCommand  and StaffCollege in Montgomery,  Alabama.  Others have occupied senior command positions in Rome, Afghanistan, Iraq,and South Korea as well as throughout the United States. In addition, the Napoleon Collection has proved to be a significant source of strategic, logistical, and tactical  information for officers who taught tens of thousandsof cadets at West Point.\n  Scholars from throughout the United States and Europe have traveled to FSU to work in the Napoleon Collection to complete their research, contributing to hundreds of publications. Inaddition, the Collection became the basis of  the  most  complete  bibliography on Napoleon and the French Revolution that exist in any language by one of our graduates. Oneof Dr. Horward's students, Major Mike Bonura, published a  volume with NYU Press in 2012 , Under theShadow of Napoleon , which traces  the extraordinary impact the Napoleonic system of  War has had upon the American military system, from President Thomas Jefferson to the onslaught of the Nazi Blitzkrieg in 1940.\n \nNote written by Burt Altman, C.A., University Librarian/Archivist"],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eDonald D.

As a result of his 28 trips to Europe doing research  and searching for books, as of late 2012 the collection includes over 20,000 volumes, some from collections as those of King Ernest August of Hanover and Achille Murat, King of Naples. It is among the most extensive in the country. The Collection attracts students and scholars from through the U.S. and Europe.\n  Of the 48 Ph.D.s and 52 M.A.s based primarily on the Napoleon and French Revolution Collection at FSU,as of late 2012, 42 books have been published and almost a thousand articles have been produced in scholarly journals.  Doctoral students who have completed their research in the Napoleon Collection have taught at scores of universities and colleges from California  to  New York.  Six of their volumes have been awarded the International  Book Prize of the International Napoleonic Society for the  best book published in Napoleonic history in a particular year.\n  The Collection has provided the basic research and degrees for fifteen officers who have taught Military Art and Napoleonic history at theUnited States Military Academy,West Point. Many have taught at the US Command and Staff College at Fort Levenworth, Kansas, the Army Command College at the Von BraunCenter, Huntsville, Alabama, the Naval Post Graduate School at Monterey, California, the Naval War College at Newport, Rhode Island, and the Air ForceCommand  and StaffCollege in Montgomery,  Alabama.  Others have occupied senior command positions in Rome, Afghanistan, Iraq,and South Korea as well as throughout the United States. In addition, the Napoleon Collection has proved to be a significant source of strategic, logistical, and tactical  information for officers who taught tens of thousandsof cadets at West Point.\n  Scholars from throughout the United States and Europe have traveled to FSU to work in the Napoleon Collection to complete their research, contributing to hundreds of publications. Inaddition, the Collection became the basis of  the  most  complete  bibliography on Napoleon and the French Revolution that exist in any language by one of our graduates. Oneof Dr. Horward's students, Major Mike Bonura, published a  volume with NYU Press in 2012 , Under theShadow of Napoleon , which traces  the extraordinary impact the Napoleonic system of  War has had upon the American military system, from President Thomas Jefferson to the onslaught of the Nazi Blitzkrieg in 1940.\n \nNote written by Burt Altman, C.A., University Librarian/Archivist","General Jean-Jacques-Germain Pelet-Clozeau Papers, Special Collections \u0026 Archives, Florida State University Libraries, Tallahassee, Florida.  http://purl.fcla.edu/fsu/MSS_94-3","The Donald D.

Three years later, the first Ph.D. graduated in Napoleonic history from FSU.\n  Dr. Horward was awarded the Distinguished Professorship in Military History at West Point and  taught  over  6,000  cadets  there. He also held  the  Edwin Conquest  Eminent Scholar Chair at Virginia Military Institute and taught hundreds of cadets in Lexington.He has written or contributed over  twenty  volumes  and  almost  sixty articles in scholarly journals, delivered  over 200  papers  and  throughout  the  U.S.and  Europe,  and  his contributions have been recognized by decorations from six countries.\n  A total of 101 doctorates and M.A. theses were completed under Dr. Horward's direction, making FSU the most prolific center for the study of Napoleon in the U.S. A unique aspect of the Institute program has been its relationship with the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.  Seventeen officers, destined for the history faculty at West Point, have been trained in the Napoleonic period at the Institute.  This is particularly appropriate since a large segment of the Military Art Course, required of all cadets, focuses on Napoleon and his system of operations.\n  Dr. Horward was the recipient of the first university-wide teaching award, and received five additional awards for excellence in teaching, including the title of Distinguished Teaching Professor.  He lectured at universities throughout the U.S., the Smithsonian on several occasions, and gave presentations in Europe at such universities as Frederick Schiller University in Germany, Charles University and Masaryk Universities in the Czech Republic, Cambridge University and Southampton University in England, the University of Budapest in Hungary, and the Borodino/Mazajsk Center, Russia.\n  In 1998, Dr. Ben Weider established at Florida State University the first chair devoted to the Napoleonic period in the U.S. and Dr. Horward was designated as the first chair holder. Dr. Weider also established a chair in the French Revolution and four scholarships for the study of Napoleon  at  FSU.  Soon thereafter, Baron  Roger Jomini,  descendent  of Napoleon's famous strategist, contributed funds  for  student scholarships. Dr. Proctor Jones provided substantial support for student grants to do research in Paris,and generous scholarships were established by Dr.Skip Vichnessand  Dr.George  Knight, graduatesof the Napoleonic program  at  FSU.\n  For  his  work  in  the  Napoleonic period,  Dr. Horward  was  decorated  by the  French, American,  and  Portuguese and recognized  by  the  Czech  Republic  and  Spanish governments.  He waselected to the  Portuguese Academy of History in1991 and named a Grand Officer of theOrder  of Infante  Dom Henrique (Prince Henry the Navigator).  In 2001, he was honored  by the  Napoleonic Alliance as the first John Elting Scholar \"for his extraordinary contributions to the study of Napoleonic History.\"  He received  the Renaissance  Francaise  Award in 2010, but his most distinguished award was given by France, The Legion of Honor,  in full ceremony at West  Point in 2002.\n  Much of the current research on Napoleon in the United States has been carried out by Dr. Horward's former students.This is closely related to his success in amassing the volumes of the Napoleon Collection at  FSU and his influential role in sustaining and expanding the Consortium on Revolutionary Europe. In addition to the thousands of  students he has taught in his graduate and  undergraduate classes at FSU,  the U.S.Military Academy at  West  Point, and other universities, his former students have introduced thousands of their students throughout the United States to the Napoleonic era.\n  After 44 years of distinguished service, Dr. Horward retired in 2005.

He was recognized as an international expert in structural biology and the protein structures of viruses.","Caspar was born January 8, 1927 in Ithaca, New York. His father was a graduate student in chemistry at Cornell University. When he was ten years old, a family friend, the crystallographer Isidor Fankuchen, told him of the recent discovery that particles of the rod-shaped tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) had a semi-crystalline structure, suggesting that the virus comprised many identical units.","After completing a B.A. in physics at Cornell (1950), Caspar did his PhD on the structure of TMV at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut (1955). He then held postdoc positions at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, and at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology in Cambridge, UK.","At Cambridge in 1956, He demonstrated that tomato bushy stunt virus had icosahedral symmetry, requiring 60 identical subunits. Biochemical data indicated that many virus particles had a lot more. Caspar resolved this paradox in the late 1950s, working with Aaron Klug at Birkbeck College in London. He introduced quasi-equivalence — the idea that equivalent protein subunits could vary slightly in conformation to tightly seal the viral shells.","In 1958, Caspar established the Laboratory for Structural Biology at the Children's Cancer Research Foundation at Boston Children's Hospital. The lab was moved to Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, in 1972.

Biochemical data indicated that many virus particles had a lot more. Caspar resolved this paradox in the late 1950s, working with Aaron Klug at Birkbeck College in London. He introduced quasi-equivalence — the idea that equivalent protein subunits could vary slightly in conformation to tightly seal the viral shells.","In 1958, Caspar established the Laboratory for Structural Biology at the Children's Cancer Research Foundation at Boston Children's Hospital. The lab was moved to Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, in 1972. In 1994, Caspar moved to the Institute for Molecular Biophysics at Florida State University in Tallahassee, where he spent the remainder of his career.","Caspar passed away on November 27, 2021, after a short illness.","Sources","Donald L.D.

As a high school student his days were filled with competition. He was president of his sophomore, junior, and senior classes, salutatorian of his senior class, a member of the basketball and baseball teams, and captain of the football and track teams. He even participated in the Drama and Glee clubs and still found time to write a daily column for his local newspaper.\n While in college at Indiana University, Veller kept up the rigorous schedule to which he had grown accustomed. He retained an A average as he pursued a Bachelor of Science degree in Education (1935), with minors in English, History, and Health. In his spare time, he was active on the football, basketball, track, baseball, and wrestling teams. He was a scholarship student while also receiving awards for his superior athleticism. He received his M.S. (1938) and PhD (1950) from that institution as well. As he worked his way through college, he held a variety of low-paying jobs, including foundry work, corn boring, working in an auto shop, highway work, waiting tables, and writing for the student newspaper. He married his college sweetheart, Miss Frances Brindley of Madison, Indiana.\n A man of varied interests, Veller combined his appreciation for the academic environment with his love of sport. After completing his undergraduate work, he was immediately appointed to teach Health and Physical Education classes at a high school in Elkhart, Indiana. There he also began his lifelong career of coaching as the Director of Football programs and an assistant coach of basketball and track.\n At the outbreak of World War II, Veller acted as a Special Services Officer in the Air Force at several installations along the East coast. He graduated from the Special Services and Information-Education Schools in Lexington, Virginia, and taught a variety of subjects for the military, including Special Services, Education, and Instruction Methods. Always the sportsman, he created an athletics and conditioning program for the Air University at Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama and scouted for the Third Air Force football team. He retired from the Air Force Reserve Program as a Lieutenant Colonel after 33 years.\n In 1946, when Veller was able to continue his civilian career, he returned to the school coaching environment as the Director of Athletics and head football and track coach at Hanover College. After a short stint working for Indiana University as a tennis coach and an assistant football coach to Bo McMillin, Veller came to Florida State University, were he served for four years as its first full-time head football coach. During that time, FSU had its first undefeated season and first bowl victory. After his pigskin days at FSU came to an end, he remained at the university to coach golf until his retirement in 1982. During this time the golf team accomplished many great feats, including an undefeated season in 1957, several nationally ranked teams, and placing fourth in two NCAA Championships. Veller coached PGA Tour players Hubert Green, Paul Azinger, Jeff Sluman, Kenny Knox, and Brian Kamm. After successfully serving as Head Coach of both football and golf, Associate Director of Athletics, and Chairman of Coaching Curriculum, Veller retired as Professor Emeritus in 1982.\n During his coaching career Veller still found time to participate in sports journalism. He was a sports commentator on Radio WTNT of Tallahassee, Florida, in the 1950's and 60's. He hosted a weekly sports TV show on Tallahassee's WCTV from 1960 to 1976. By far the most prolific of his journalistic pursuits was his weekly golf column for the  Tallahassee Democrat , for which he wrote well over 2,000 columns from 1960 to 2004. He published a book of short poems,  Fluffs, Muffs, and Really Deep Rough , with which he ended these columns in 2000. He also published several articles in sports journals and more than fifty of his humorous golf poems in  Golf Digest .\n In honor of his numerous athletic accomplishments, Veller was inducted into the Indiana Football Hall of Fame (1978), the Florida State University Hall of Fame (1981), the State of Florida Sports Hall of Fame (to which he was inducted along with Arnold Palmer in 1985), the Indiana University Hall of Fame (1986), and the National Golf Coaches Hall of Fame at Pinehurst (1989). He received Indiana University's Distinguished Alumni Service Award, its highest alumni honor, in 1993.\n Don Veller died at his home in Tallahassee, Florida, November 10, 2006, just days after the death of Fran, his beloved wife of 70 years.","Processed in May 2007 by Ginger H.

She was the daughter of Clayton Douglas, an American government employee doing agricultural education work, and Evangeline Douglas, a Canadian nursing missionary.  The family moved to Baguio, Luzon in 1937 and Whittle's brother Hugh was born. She had a relatively normal childhood prior to the war, attending Maryknoll Catholic School and the Episcopal Brent School with other American children of missionaries, doctors, businessmen, miners, etc. She participated in Brownies, took dance lessons and went to the movies among other activities.\n In the months leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, the Douglas family stored canned food in the basement but did not evacuate to the hills outside the city where their Filipino friends offered them shelter. Whittle's father was concerned about his health, as he was diabetic, and by the time the Japanese invaded on 8 December 1941, it was too late to evacuate. The Japanese summoned the Douglas family on 27 December 1941 to register and to stay one night in custody; the family packed light suitcases under this premise but were instead held until their liberation in 1945, never seeing their house, pets, or belongings again. Whittle was ten years old when the Japanese imprisoned her.\n From registration, the Japanese separated men, women, and children, and marched them five miles to Camp John Hay. Whittle carried her younger brother, Hugh, on her back, afraid she would never see her parents again, and afraid her father would die because he could no longer take his insulin. Upon arrival at Camp John Hay, she reunited with her mother; the Japanese separated families to intimidate them and demonstrate their power. Her mother suffered from the fear of being separated again for the rest of the war.\n Camp John Hay held 500 civilians, 125 of which were children. It was segregated, separating the Chinese from the Americans, and the men from the women and children. Whittle was able to occasionally see her father, despite their separation. The camp was cramped, had poor sanitation and little food. By the end of her stay, Whittle ate 100g of food per day and almost starved.\n In early 1942, Whittle and her family moved from Camp John Hay to Camp Holmes, where they were imprisoned for a majority of the war (3 years and 3 months). Her registration number was C-92. Although Camp Holmes had more room for the Incarcerated, men remained separated from women and children. Despite better living conditions, the Incarcerated people lived in fear of their Japanese imprisoners; the Japanese tortured the incarcerated for information and fed the camp propaganda about American forces losing. The Incarcerated persons felt forgotten by the United States, but they were able to determine the American troops' location in the Pacific based off Japanese propaganda.\n Despite their internment, the incarcerated individuals attempted to maintain everyday life by creating a school system for the children, continuing religious services, and creating their own self-government to communicate between the Incarcerated people and the Japanese guards. Whittle completed 5th through 8th grade while interned, taking multiple subjects including reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, history, geography, music, and art, and by reading books brought back by the incarcerated persons allowed to go into town to collect materials. She documented the books she read in a list in her diary.\n As the American forces progressed in 1944, the incarcerated people received fewer food rations and the Japanese guards became meaner. On 27 December 1944, in anticipation of the Battle of Luzon, the Japanese moved the incarcerated people in Camp Holmes to Bilibid Prison in Manila, where the civilians remained separated from the POW Bataan Death March survivors. While in Bilibid Prison, the Douglas family stayed in the infirmary as they had dengue fever, dysentery, and were starving. They were grateful to be behind the thick prison walls as the Battle for Manila raged on outside.\n By 3 February 1945, the Japanese guards had abandoned Bilibid Prison and advised the incarcerated people to remain inside for their own safety. It was there that American forces discovered the soldier POWs who then directed them to the civilian POW section. A majority of the incarcerated individuals were starving and had difficulty eating the food the Army provided. The Army moved them to Santo Tomas prison to avoid the approaching fires, and from there they processed the civilians to go home.\n On 3 April 1945, the Douglas family began their one-month journey on the USS E.W. Eberle to California. They briefly stayed with their family in Wisconsin before settling in Wildwood, Florida, where Whittle's father taught agriculture at Wildwood High School. Whittle continued her high school education and went on to graduate from Florida State University with a degree in Home Economics.\n The war impacted each family member differently. Whittle's father came out of internment no longer diabetic, looking to move on with their lives and determined to help rebuild the Philippines to what it had been. Conversely, Whittle's mother never overcame the constant fear of being separated from her children again and insisted they return to the United States so they could know what it was like to live as Americans. Whittle's brother realized the significance of their childhood experiences later in life, and Whittle herself always acknowledged how her experiences made her different from her peers. Above all, she was grateful to have been with her family during the war, no matter how bad the circumstances became.\n Whittle married Jay Francis Whittle and had four children. She was a teacher in Florida for over 36 years and involved in the community, including at the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at Florida State University. She attended reunions for her fellow civilian incarcerated persons. Dorothy Douglas Whittle passed away on 2 May 2017.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","The Dorothy \"Dot\" Douglas Whittle Collection contains one box of personal papers, including a 35-page typed oral history transcript, photocopies of Whittle's diary from her internment, photocopies of Whittle's scrapbook about her internment, photographs of the Douglas family, and personal accounts of internment from other civilian prisoners.

She was the daughter of Clayton Douglas, an American government employee doing agricultural education work, and Evangeline Douglas, a Canadian nursing missionary.\u0026#xA0; The family moved to Baguio, Luzon in 1937 and Whittle's brother Hugh was born. She had a relatively normal childhood prior to the war, attending Maryknoll Catholic School and the Episcopal Brent School with other American children of missionaries, doctors, businessmen, miners, etc. She participated in Brownies, took dance lessons and went to the movies among other activities.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the months leading up to the Japanese invasion of the Philippines, the Douglas family stored canned food in the basement but did not evacuate to the hills outside the city where their Filipino friends offered them shelter. Whittle's father was concerned about his health, as he was diabetic, and by the time the Japanese invaded on 8 December 1941, it was too late to evacuate. The Japanese summoned the Douglas family on 27 December 1941 to register and to stay one night in custody; the family packed light suitcases under this premise but were instead held until their liberation in 1945, never seeing their house, pets, or belongings again. Whittle was ten years old when the Japanese imprisoned her.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom registration, the Japanese separated men, women, and children, and marched them five miles to Camp John Hay. Whittle carried her younger brother, Hugh, on her back, afraid she would never see her parents again, and afraid her father would die because he could no longer take his insulin. Upon arrival at Camp John Hay, she reunited with her mother; the Japanese separated families to intimidate them and demonstrate their power. Her mother suffered from the fear of being separated again for the rest of the war.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCamp John Hay held 500 civilians, 125 of which were children. It was segregated, separating the Chinese from the Americans, and the men from the women and children. Whittle was able to occasionally see her father, despite their separation. The camp was cramped, had poor sanitation and little food. By the end of her stay, Whittle ate 100g of food per day and almost starved.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn early 1942, Whittle and her family moved from Camp John Hay to Camp Holmes, where they were imprisoned for a majority of the war (3 years and 3 months). Her registration number was C-92. Although Camp Holmes had more room for the Incarcerated, men remained separated from women and children. Despite better living conditions, the Incarcerated people lived in fear of their Japanese imprisoners; the Japanese tortured the incarcerated for information and fed the camp propaganda about American forces losing. The Incarcerated persons felt forgotten by the United States, but they were able to determine the American troops' location in the Pacific based off Japanese propaganda.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite their internment, the incarcerated individuals attempted to maintain everyday life by creating a school system for the children, continuing religious services, and creating their own self-government to communicate between the Incarcerated people and the Japanese guards. Whittle completed 5th through 8th grade while interned, taking multiple subjects including reading, writing, spelling, arithmetic, history, geography, music, and art, and by reading books brought back by the incarcerated persons allowed to go into town to collect materials. She documented the books she read in a list in her diary.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs the American forces progressed in 1944, the incarcerated people received fewer food rations and the Japanese guards became meaner. On 27 December 1944, in anticipation of the Battle of Luzon, the Japanese moved the incarcerated people in Camp Holmes to Bilibid Prison in Manila, where the civilians remained separated from the POW Bataan Death March survivors. While in Bilibid Prison, the Douglas family stayed in the infirmary as they had dengue fever, dysentery, and were starving. They were grateful to be behind the thick prison walls as the Battle for Manila raged on outside.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy 3 February 1945, the Japanese guards had abandoned Bilibid Prison and advised the incarcerated people to remain inside for their own safety. It was there that American forces discovered the soldier POWs who then directed them to the civilian POW section. A majority of the incarcerated individuals were starving and had difficulty eating the food the Army provided. The Army moved them to Santo Tomas prison to avoid the approaching fires, and from there they processed the civilians to go home.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn 3 April 1945, the Douglas family began their one-month journey on the USS E.W. Eberle to California. They briefly stayed with their family in Wisconsin before settling in Wildwood, Florida, where Whittle's father taught agriculture at Wildwood High School. Whittle continued her high school education and went on to graduate from Florida State University with a degree in Home Economics.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe war impacted each family member differently. Whittle's father came out of internment no longer diabetic, looking to move on with their lives and determined to help rebuild the Philippines to what it had been. Conversely, Whittle's mother never overcame the constant fear of being separated from her children again and insisted they return to the United States so they could know what it was like to live as Americans. Whittle's brother realized the significance of their childhood experiences later in life, and Whittle herself always acknowledged how her experiences made her different from her peers. Above all, she was grateful to have been with her family during the war, no matter how bad the circumstances became.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhittle married Jay Francis Whittle and had four children. She was a teacher in Florida for over 36 years and involved in the community, including at the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience at Florida State University. She attended reunions for her fellow civilian incarcerated persons. Dorothy Douglas Whittle passed away on 2 May 2017.\u003c/p\u003e"]}]}}],"label":"Breadcrumbs"}}},"links":{"self":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/1124b692e3534f996ab051e9"}},{"id":"5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539_aspace_10af295c1dc2f5fcc3e2b730e2da5f54","type":"File","attributes":{"title":"Dorothy Porter Wesley career milestones, Circa 2002-2012","breadcrumbs":{"id":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539_aspace_10af295c1dc2f5fcc3e2b730e2da5f54#breadcrumbs","type":"document_value","attributes":{"value":[{"ref_ssi":"aspace_10af295c1dc2f5fcc3e2b730e2da5f54","ref_ssm":["aspace_10af295c1dc2f5fcc3e2b730e2da5f54","aspace_10af295c1dc2f5fcc3e2b730e2da5f54"],"id":"5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539_aspace_10af295c1dc2f5fcc3e2b730e2da5f54","title_filing_ssi":"Dorothy Porter Wesley career milestones","title_ssm":["Dorothy Porter Wesley career milestones"],"title_tesim":["Dorothy Porter Wesley career milestones"],"unitdate_inclusive_ssm":["Circa 2002-2012"],"normalized_date_ssm":["Circa 2002-2012"],"normalized_title_ssm":["Dorothy Porter Wesley career milestones, Circa 2002-2012"],"text":["Dorothy Porter Wesley career milestones, Circa 2002-2012","Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection, Circa 1788-2012","Professional Papers","Constance Porter Uzelac professional papers, Circa 1992-2012","/repositories/2/archival_objects/4283","box 20","folder 363"],"component_level_isim":[3],"parent_ids_ssim":["5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539","5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539_aspace_5fad3c940d5d32bd28317ccb4d6a73d7","5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539_aspace_39596ce10589f8d49ab534ccb3a89d79"],"parent_unittitles_ssm":["Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection, Circa 1788-2012","Professional Papers","Constance Porter Uzelac professional papers, Circa 1992-2012"],"parent_unittitles_tesim":["Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection, Circa 1788-2012","Professional Papers","Constance Porter Uzelac professional papers, Circa 1992-2012"],"parent_levels_ssm":["collection","Series","Subseries"],"unitid_ssm":["/repositories/2/archival_objects/4283"],"repository_ssim":["AARLCC Special Collections"],"collection_ssim":["Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection, Circa 1788-2012"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"child_component_count_isi":0,"level_ssm":["File"],"level_ssim":["File"],"sort_isi":373,"parent_access_restrict_tesm":["The Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection is open for research."],"date_range_isim":[2002,2003,2004,2005,2006,2007,2008,2009,2010,2011,2012],"containers_ssim":["box 20","folder 363"],"_nest_path_":"/components#1/components#1/components#10","_nest_parent_":"5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539_aspace_39596ce10589f8d49ab534ccb3a89d79","_root_":"5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539","_version_":1871563605913108480,"timestamp":"2026-07-24T03:02:22.463Z","collection":{"numFound":1,"start":0,"numFoundExact":true,"docs":[{"id":"5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539","title_filing_ssi":"Wesley, Dorothy Porter Collection","title_ssm":["Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection"],"title_tesim":["Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection"],"ead_ssi":"5e17dda97e7549e9d9b40539","unitdate_ssm":["Circa 1788-2012"],"unitdate_inclusive_ssm":["Circa 1788-2012"],"level_ssm":["collection"],"level_ssim":["File","Collection"],"unitid_ssm":["AARLCC.2003.6","/repositories/2/resources/20"],"text":["AARLCC.2003.6","/repositories/2/resources/20","Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection, Circa 1788-2012","Africa -- Research","Wesley, Dorothy Porter -- Correspondence","Uzelac, Constance Porter -- Correspondence","Moorland-Spingarn Research Center","African American librarians","African American historians","African Americans -- History -- Sources","W.E.B.

Books and Pamphlets","Dorothy Burnett Porter Wesley (1905-1995) was a librarian, curator and bibliophile born on May 25, 1905 in Warrenton, Virginia. Her parents were physician Hayes Joseph Burnett and tennis player Roberta (\"Bertha\") Ball Burnett. She was the eldest of four children and grew up in Montclair, New Jersey. ","She graduated from Miner Normal School, Washington D.C. in 1925 with the intention of becoming a teacher. Wesley worked as a library assistant in the Miner Normal School library where she worked with librarian Lula V. Allan (1879-1968) who encouraged her to pursue a career in library science. Wesley enrolled in Howard University in 1926 and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1928. She then enrolled at Colombia University's School of Library Science where she received a Master's in Library Science in 1931. ","In 1929 Dorothy married artist and art history professor James Amos Porter (1905-1970) with whom she had her only daughter, Constance \"Coni\" Porter Uzelac (1939-2012). James A. Porter graduated with honors from Howard University in 1927 and began teaching art there the next semester. His classic book and standard reference work,  Modern Negro Art , proved to be one of the most informative sources to date on the creativity of the Black artists.","In 1930, Dorothy Porter began work as curator of the Moorland Foundation at Howard University, (now known as the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center) and worked to build the library's collections documenting African, African American, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Hispanic history and culture. After becoming the Curator at Howard University in 1930, started thinking about how to catalog books by Black authors and related to Black history and culture. At the time, she recognized that the Dewey Decimal System only had two numbers (for \"Slavery\" and for \"Colonization\") under which all works related to Black people or Black authors could be cataloged. In response, during the first few years of her Curatorship, she created a new classification system that reflected the true breadth of the books available on topics related to Black people and by Black authors. She disseminated the classification system to other libraries, and published it in 1939. Porter worked at the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center until her retirement in 1973.","James Porter's died in 1970, and in 1979 Dorothy married Charles Harris Wesley (1891-1987), a noted historian, educator, and author. After receiving his master's degree from Yale University in 1913, he taught at Howard University from 1913 until 1942. Between 1920 and 1925, he also earned a Ph.D. from Harvard University, the fourth African American to do so. He served as President of Wilberforce University from 1942-1947 and of Central State College, Ohio from 1947 until 1965. ","Charles Harris Wesley authored more than 15 books on African-American history over the course of his career. His first book, Negro Labor in the United States, was hailed as one of the most useful works on the role of African-Americans in industry available in the 1920s. Dorothy worked with Charles on a variety of research projects even prior to their marriage, and continued to do so until Charles's death in 1987. ","After her retirement from Howard University in 1973, Dorothy Porter Wesley worked as a consultant for a variety of institutions and foundations such as the Radcliffe University's Black Women Oral History Archive. She also continued to write articles and books.","In 1994 President Bill Clinton presented her with the National Endowment for the Humanities' Charles Frankel Award. Dorothy Porter Wesley died in Broward County, Florida in 1995.","The book  William Cooper Nell, Nineteenth-Century African American Abolitionist, Historian, Integrationist: Selected Writings 1832-1874  (2002) was the last research project that Charles and Dorothy worked on together, and was posthumously published by Dorothy's daughter, Constance Porter Uzelac. Uzelac worked as a medical librarian. After her mother's death, she became the Executive Director of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Archive and managed James A. Porter's art collection.","In 2000, Constance Uzelac worked with the Bienes Museum of the Modern Book, James Findlay, on an exhibition of her mother's collection that was displayed at the Broward County Main Library in February and March of 2001. Samuel F. Morrison, Director of the Broward County Library, was instrumental in bringing the collection to exhibition at the Bienes, and would further encourage the purchase of the materials from Uzelac for the newly-opened AARLCC Special Collections in December 2002. Constance later worked at Broward County Library, cataloging a portion of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection at the AARLCC Special Collections. Constance married Milan Uzelac in 1965. They had no children. She died in Broward County in 2012.","This collection received file level processing.

Her parents were physician Hayes Joseph Burnett and tennis player Roberta (\"Bertha\") Ball Burnett. She was the eldest of four children and grew up in Montclair, New Jersey. ","She graduated from Miner Normal School, Washington D.C. in 1925 with the intention of becoming a teacher. Wesley worked as a library assistant in the Miner Normal School library where she worked with librarian Lula V. Allan (1879-1968) who encouraged her to pursue a career in library science. Wesley enrolled in Howard University in 1926 and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1928. She then enrolled at Colombia University's School of Library Science where she received a Master's in Library Science in 1931. ","In 1929 Dorothy married artist and art history professor James Amos Porter (1905-1970) with whom she had her only daughter, Constance \"Coni\" Porter Uzelac (1939-2012). James A. Porter graduated with honors from Howard University in 1927 and began teaching art there the next semester. His classic book and standard reference work,  Modern Negro Art , proved to be one of the most informative sources to date on the creativity of the Black artists.","In 1930, Dorothy Porter began work as curator of the Moorland Foundation at Howard University, (now known as the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center) and worked to build the library's collections documenting African, African American, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Hispanic history and culture. After becoming the Curator at Howard University in 1930, started thinking about how to catalog books by Black authors and related to Black history and culture. At the time, she recognized that the Dewey Decimal System only had two numbers (for \"Slavery\" and for \"Colonization\") under which all works related to Black people or Black authors could be cataloged. In response, during the first few years of her Curatorship, she created a new classification system that reflected the true breadth of the books available on topics related to Black people and by Black authors. She disseminated the classification system to other libraries, and published it in 1939. Porter worked at the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center until her retirement in 1973.","James Porter's died in 1970, and in 1979 Dorothy married Charles Harris Wesley (1891-1987), a noted historian, educator, and author. After receiving his master's degree from Yale University in 1913, he taught at Howard University from 1913 until 1942. Between 1920 and 1925, he also earned a Ph.D. from Harvard University, the fourth African American to do so. He served as President of Wilberforce University from 1942-1947 and of Central State College, Ohio from 1947 until 1965. ","Charles Harris Wesley authored more than 15 books on African-American history over the course of his career. His first book, Negro Labor in the United States, was hailed as one of the most useful works on the role of African-Americans in industry available in the 1920s. Dorothy worked with Charles on a variety of research projects even prior to their marriage, and continued to do so until Charles's death in 1987. ","After her retirement from Howard University in 1973, Dorothy Porter Wesley worked as a consultant for a variety of institutions and foundations such as the Radcliffe University's Black Women Oral History Archive. She also continued to write articles and books.","In 1994 President Bill Clinton presented her with the National Endowment for the Humanities' Charles Frankel Award. Dorothy Porter Wesley died in Broward County, Florida in 1995.","The book  William Cooper Nell, Nineteenth-Century African American Abolitionist, Historian, Integrationist: Selected Writings 1832-1874  (2002) was the last research project that Charles and Dorothy worked on together, and was posthumously published by Dorothy's daughter, Constance Porter Uzelac. Uzelac worked as a medical librarian. After her mother's death, she became the Executive Director of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Archive and managed James A. Porter's art collection.","In 2000, Constance Uzelac worked with the Bienes Museum of the Modern Book, James Findlay, on an exhibition of her mother's collection that was displayed at the Broward County Main Library in February and March of 2001. Samuel F. Morrison, Director of the Broward County Library, was instrumental in bringing the collection to exhibition at the Bienes, and would further encourage the purchase of the materials from Uzelac for the newly-opened AARLCC Special Collections in December 2002. Constance later worked at Broward County Library, cataloging a portion of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection at the AARLCC Special Collections. Constance married Milan Uzelac in 1965. They had no children. She died in Broward County in 2012.","This collection received file level processing.
