This book examines the experiences of Americans in Europe during
the First World War prior to the U.S. declaration of war. Key
groups include volunteer soldiers, doctors, nurses, ambulance
drivers, reporters, diplomats, peace activists, charitable workers,
and long-term American expatriate civilians. What these Americans
wrote about the Great War, as published in contemporary books and
periodicals, provides the core source material for this volume.
Author Kenneth D. Rose argues that these writings served the
critical function of preparing the American public for the
declaration of war, one of the most important decisions of the
twentieth century, and defined the threat and consequences of the
European conflict for Americans and American interests at home and
abroad.
