1.The Guns of AugustThe Guns of August
from Presidio Press
Price: $7.99

Customer Review:
This book describes one of the most incredible examples where rigidity of thinking and planning led to events spiraling totally out of control. It also demonstrates how it is a very rare occasion that the consequences of a war are anywhere close to the belief of the people that started it. Although... more info

2.Paris 1919: Six Months That Changed the WorldParis 1919: Six Months That Changed the World
from Random House Trade Paperbacks
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:
This work is all about the treaty that brought World War One to a close. It's also takes a detailed look at the various, (and often, "nefarious"), world leaders who were the principals in fleshing out that final agreement which, by the way, was never ratified by the U.S, Congress.
I especially... more info

3.Storm of Steel (Penguin Classics)Storm of Steel (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $10.50

Customer Review:
This is an amazing book to read. Junger was a stormtrooper--the German soldiers who lead the first wave into the trenches--for something like four years. It seems extraordinary that anyone could have survived such a holocaust, let alone four years of it. There is very little in the way of emotional... more info

4.The Great War and Modern MemoryThe Great War and Modern Memory
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
Another must-read for anyone interested in great literature. From the sublime to the mundane, Fussell is most fascinating. This can be a fairly quick read -- perhaps a long weekend for most, but then you will find yourself returning to re-read certain chapters, and it will definitely end up on your... more info

5.A World Undone: The Story of the Great War, 1914 to 1918A World Undone: The Story of the Great War, 1914 to 1918
from Delacorte Press
Price: $13.60

Customer Review:
Having just finished Doris Kearns Goodwin's wonderful Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln, I wouldn't have expected to be blown away by a history, but this one is really impressive! Meyer's sympathy for the characters, his humor, his concern for the needs of his reader and his... more info

6.The First World WarThe First World War
from Vintage
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
Leaving aside Keegan's leaden prose style, the major problem I have with this (original hardcopy edition, 1998) is the of the lack of maps. Because of this I got no further than the chapter dealing with the Battle of the Frontiers and the Marne. It's very frustrating to be told in great detail about... more info

8.Setting the Desert on Fire: T. E. Lawrence and Britain s Secret War in Arabia, 1916-1918Setting the Desert on Fire: T. E. Lawrence and Britain's Secret War in Arabia, 1916-1918
from W. W. Norton
Price: $18.45

Customer Review:
There's a great old song from 70 years ago called "Perfidia", and the title and lyrics seem quite appropriate to this fine new historical work. The war in Arabia conjurs up all kind of heroic and romantic visions, almost all centering on T.E. Lawrence. WW I was, for the most part, a hell of trench... more info

9.The Proud Tower: A Portrait of the World Before the War, 1890-1914The Proud Tower: A Portrait of the World Before the War, 1890-1914
from Ballantine Books
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
One of the things I love about Barbara Tuchman is her ability to bring people in history to life for me. In "The Proud Tower", she gives a distinct and in depth view of people who shaped politics and the world before World War I. It is often the long decades before a major conflict that lead to the... more info

10.AttacksAttacks
from Athena Pr
Price: $17.50

Customer Review:
Erwin Rommel first learned his trade in the Great War as an Infantry commander. In this work he discusses individual actions he took part in and the lessons he learned regarding modern combat. Most of these lessons are still relevent today, which shows just how observant he was.
The book is... more info
