"World War I" explores the daily lives of the men and women who
served the United States in the Great War. Relying extensively on
letters, diaries, and reminiscences of those Americans who fought
or served in World War I, Jennifer D. Keene reports on the training
camp experience at home; the journey overseas; and the unique
difficulties African Americans, Native Americans, women, and
immigrants encountered in the predominately white and native-born
army. She also describes in vivid detail the perspective of naval
and air service personnel and, for those on the ground in France,
the horrors of static trench warfare and active engagement in
combat. Chapters describe coping with and treating disease and
wounds; the devastating frequency of death; and for those who came
home, the difficult reentry into civilian life, as well as the
causes, strategic decisions, and political outcome of the war. This
volume includes a timeline, illustrations, and an extensive
bibliography of recommended sources.
