When war was declared in Europe in 1914, Americans were divided
about becoming involved. President Wilson vowed to keep the United
States neutral and tried to influence each side in the war through
diplomacy. In this compelling book, readers will learn how the loss
of American lives on the torpedoed ship RMS Lusitania and a
telegram from Germany asking Mexico to join the German side
convinced the American government to declare war on Germany in
1917. Find out how the American people responded at home, and how
fresh troops from the United States, nicknamed doughboys, helped
re-energize the Allies' fight. Victories in the air by American
aces, such as Rickenbacker, and on the battlefields of Amiens, the
Marne, and the Argonne Forest are highlighted.
