This collection consists of two pamphlets given to Edgar Wilson and other Allied soldiers during World War II to aquaint them with unfamiliar cultures. The first of these two items highlights the differences between the English and American cultures in order to prevent the clash of the two groups and to counteract Nazi propaganda aimed at causing an impossible working relationship between the British and the Americans. It includes commonly used terms, common personality traits of the English citizenry, and general advice for developing a friendly relationship.

The second pamphlet in this collection was given to Allied troops to introduce them to Paris nightlife and attractions. The publishers of this pamphlet included advertisements for cabarets, maps of nightclubs, and information to facilitate sightseeing in Paris.
