The well-written and evocative articles bring the war to life."" - Jennifer Keene, author of <i>Doughboys, the Great War, and the Remaking of America</i><br /><br />""Some of these stories are real gems. Irving Cobb’s account of the sinking of the SS <i>Tuscania</i>, for example, is absolutely riveting, and the same can be said of William Shepherd’s description of life aboard US Navy destroyers in the Atlantic, Floyd Gibbons’s narration of his wounding at Belleau Wood, and George Pattullo’s roll-out of the Sergeant York legend."" - Steven Trout, author of <i>On the Battlefield of Memory: The First World War and American Remembrance</i>
