Excellent insight with first hand accounts on one of the US force's bloodiest battles in WW1.

I did not know anything about World War I, other than the American Soldiers were called Doughboys and that it started because of an assassination in Sarajevo. This book focuses on the last major battles of the Meuse-Argonne. This is not an easy read, but overall, I gained greater respect for the American Soldiers and the contribution in blood and sacrifice in this war to end all wars.

There are some amazing stories on the valor of individual soldiers (like John Lewis Barkley and Alvin C. York).

I am glad I invested my time to read and learn from this book. In the end, that is why I love to read.
