Edward M. Coffman’s stunning work of military history, The War to End All Wars, offers a fresh and interesting perspective on the Great War, focusing solely on the United States as a major player in the struggle. Coffman pays special attention to the American soldier and his experiences throughout the conflict, making this a brilliant social history as well.

The War to End All Wars is considered by many to be the best single account of America’s participation in World War I. Covering famous battles, the birth of the air force, naval engagements, the War Department, and experiences of the troops, this indispensable volume is suitable for history buffs, students, and general readers.

Edward M. Coffman is professor of history, emeritus, at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He is the author of numerous articles and books.

Tom Weiner, a dialogue director and voice artist best known for his roles in video games and television shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Transformers, is the winner of eight Earphones Awards and Audie Award finalist. He is a former member of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.

Reviews

“Will surely stand as the first source for anyone interested in the conflict.”

“[Coffman] can explain complex matters in a few sharp paragraphs, illuminate technical discussions with personal vignettes, and use statistics to clarify rather than confuse…Should become standard reading in twentieth-century American history courses.”

“A history of the entire American military involvement in World War I, it is widely regarded as the most authoritative work on its topic.”

“As a reference on the American military presence in World War I, Coffman’s book should be a standard for anyone interested in such studies.”
