Excerpts from introduction: This book tells with painstaking and dispassionate accuracy of the causes of the war, and of the developments that made it inevitable that the United States should take up its part of the bloody burden. The political strategy of this war has been no less important, no less interesting than its military operations and the fullest attention has been paid to this feature. Scores of photographers have risked their lives that the world may know what war is like, and the reader gets the carefully skimmed cream of their work. This edition - the fourth to be issued brings the narrative down to March 1918. From it is omitted no vital or significant episode of the titanic struggle which is beggaring the world today.
