Overview

""America: Great Crises in Our History Told by Its Makers: The Great War 1914-1916"" is a compelling collection of primary source documents that chronicles the pivotal early years of the First World War from an American perspective. As the eleventh volume in a comprehensive series, this work brings together the voices of the era's most influential figures-statesmen, soldiers, and observers-to provide a first-hand account of the nation's struggle with neutrality and its eventual path toward global conflict. This volume delves into the complex diplomatic, social, and military challenges faced between 1914 and 1916. Readers will find personal narratives and official testimonies covering critical events such as the sinking of the Lusitania, the debates over preparedness, and the shifting public sentiment regarding European entanglements. By presenting history through the words of those who lived it, the collection offers an authentic and immersive look at the tensions that defined American life during this era. Ideal for historians, students, and readers interested in the roots of modern American foreign policy, this work serves as an essential record of the Great War's impact on the United States. It captures the uncertainty and the dramatic shifts in national identity that occurred as the country moved from isolation toward its role as a world power.
