Notes
The author describes the Great War as causing a dramatic revolution in America, wrenching an adverse, unregulated nineteenth century society into the modern age. The book explains the country's first experience with total war and makes understandable the young republic's embracing of state control, or what in Britain came to be called "war socialism".
