Publisher's Summary
World War I, also known in its time as the “Great War” or the “War to End all Wars”, was an unprecedented holocaust in terms of its sheer scale. Fought by men who hailed from all corners of the globe, it saw millions of soldiers do battle in brutal assaults of attrition, which dragged on for months with little to no respite. Tens of millions of artillery shells and untold hundreds of millions of rifle and machine gun bullets were fired in a conflict that demonstrated man’s capacity to kill each other on an unprecedented scale.

Not very good.
First, there should be some notice that this book is almost 100% about the American experience. Two, the narrator needs to learn how to pronounce French place. It's not "Vair-doon". It's Ver-dun. It's not "Albert". It's "Al-bear". And so on. And there's a lot of editorializing early on by the author, about how students waste time in classes and take the lazy way out by blaming WWI on alliances. Huh?? Not a great experience and I would not recommend this book.
