Publisher's note

Drawing upon the often harrowing personal accounts of the soldiers of the American Expeditionary force, THE DOUGHBOYS establishes the pivotal role played by the Americans in the defeat of the Central powers in November 1918. Gary Mead brings together a rich selection of archive material in an engaging account that is part military history, part social analysis, part memoir. THE DOUGHBOYS records the events of the war exclusively from the perspective of the United States, highlighting the crucial part played by the troops of the AEF and exposing the prickly, often turbulent relationship between the American and the Allied forces.

Annotation

This World War I history tells how the Americans entered the war after first building up a trained force--the delay of which led to some frustration for the British and French; and it shows, through diaries, letters and other personal writings, what the everyday experiences were for the American soldiers.
