The U.S. Army in the World War I Era

The U.S. Army in the World War I Era is part of the U.S. Army Campaigns of World War I series. Drawn largely from CMH's two-volume textbook, American Military History, the pamphlet provides an overview of the decades leading up to the United States joining the World War, and the country's experiences during the eighteen months of involvement in the war. The conflict capped a period of reform and professionalization that transformed the Army from a small dispersed organization rooted in constabulary operations to a modern industrialized fighting force capable of global reach and impact.

Historians, students, teachers, members of the military and veterans, and anyone with an interest in the history of WWI would find this publication valuable.
