"This is a thorough treatment of not only the events but also the personalities of the war, with particular attention paid to the difficulties they faced. The book reveals insights into the United States' relations in the world, the nation's unpreparedness for such a war, the limits imposed on the Navy by the cabinet, and the unexpected conclusion to the war. Much of the author's exhaustive research is new, such as the use of French official documents and British recollections of the American ships and sailors. This book will be the standard reference volume for libraries and serious scholars with a special interest in World War I and in the history of warfare."--BOOK JACKET.
