The controversial nature of some of the contributions and the divergences among the authors on certain issues (for example, whether U.S. entry into the war dramatically transformed it) may make the collection useful for stimulating discussion. The essays are also valuable for the ways they address neglected topics, sketch the state of current scholarship, and promote rethinking of the waging, meanings, and effects of World War I. The collection is enhanced by a useful timeline and an excellent, up-to-date bibliography. Informationen zum Autor Thomas W.
