Summary

The first world war as seen in the US through gazettes and newspapers. At home and abroad. New and not usually found pictures and illustrations.

Containing more than two-hundred and fifty photos and drawings, this volume examines the early months of the US entry into the first world war, what was shown and how it was shown – in the US and the allies around the world.  Many of these photos have not seen the light of day for many decades.  Each section is accompanied by a description and background to place the photos in context.
