The intent of this work is to provide an accessible, impressionistic sense of how World War I was experienced by a broad spectrum of people. Personal accounts of war are placed in just enough context to give the reader a sense what it was like to be, for example, an African American in the war. Dowling (history, Virginia Military Institute) presents chapters covering the experiences of British Indians, soldiers in the European colonies, soldiers manning the trenches of Europe, those experiencing a gas attack, tank combat, submarine personnel, allied medical personnel, American social welfare agencies, Allied civilian internees in Germany, American women on the home front, and radicals and pacifists.
