Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)...much about World War I, despite having focused on American history during college. And recently, as I have begun to learn more about WWII (thanks to good friends who have made it a point to understand this important part of our history) I found myself eager to understand what led to The Great War (as I now know it) and what impact it had on the course of our lives. Not wanting to read ab academic or cumbersome report, I searched for, and found, the perfect source: this brief, readable and informed description of WWI complete with context (maps), analysis, and insights into the various strategic, geopolitical, and cultural impacts of this conflict. Thank you Dr. Finn for this elegantly written and easily understood window into an important part of our history.

"When Europe Went Mad: A Brief History of the First World War" is not your typical World War I read. Terence T. Finn offers his readers the important facts of one of the most significant wars in human history, yet presents it in a concise and comprehensive style meant for the common reader and history buff alike. "When Europe Went Mad" recounts the harrowing events of a war now nearly a century behind us, and boldly tells the story of the American Expeditionary Force (AEF). Finn reminds the reader that well before General Dwight D. Eisenhower led American G.I.s into combat (1943-1945), John J. Pershing took an American army 'over there' and made history. With grace, Finn resurrects an understanding of this war's significance and ensures that its worldwide impacts, and the lives lost in the name of it, are never forgotten.
