The World War at a Glance is a carefully scanned reprint of a 1918 publication of essential facts and figures concerning World War I originally published by Laird and Lee, Inc. in Chicago. There are 96 pages of information and numerical data about the countries involved, costs, armaments used by the various nations, a chronology of the war, sections on the US Army, Navy, and Aviation including balloons and aerial observers, merchant fleets of the world, the banker nations, the Liberty Motor, the railroads, the National Guard, selective draft, and a myriad of other charts and descriptive information. There are line drawings of wig wag signals, semaphore code, insignias of the American, British, and French armies and navies, and flags of countries involved. The amount of information contained in this booklet is astounding and is presented in tables, charts, maps, drawings and clearly written narrative. This reprint edition was scanned from an original in which an Iowa soldier had written notes about his service. Those handwritten notes are included with a transcript. The notes document his preparation to go to France in 1917 and his return to Camp Dodge in Iowa a year later. The original booklet was 3.25 inches by 5.5 inches. This reprint edition has been enlarged to 6 inches by 9 inches for easier reading. The cover and interior are exact renditions of the original except they have been enlarged and color corrected for enhanced readability. The World War at a Glance is an invaluable reference for research as well as an interesting source of information for those interested in history.
They are all infantrymen; none were commissioned officers. One is a
German-speaking artist whose sole record is nineteen stunning
watercolors that cover a year's enlistment. Another is a free black
from Syracuse, New York. Six are from slave states, one of whom was
a Unionist. Drawing from the more than 60,000 documents housed in
the privately held Gilder Lehrman Collection, Robert E. Bonner has
movingly reconstructed the experiences of sixteen Civil War
soldiers, using their own accounts to knit together a ground-level
view of the entire conflict. The immediacy of diaries and the
intimacy of letters to loved ones accompany the humor of an
anonymous cartoonist from Massachusetts, the vivid paintings of
Private Henry Berckhoff.
