PUBLISHERS' FOREWORD Almost
three years of research work, both in Europe and America, have gone into
the making of this photographic chronicle of the World War.

American Expeditionary

Forces; some from similar European sources; some from individual participants and eyewitnesses, professional as well as amateur;

others from

and abroad. Mr. Otto Kurth, formerly

Pictorial, car-
tographer and picture editor of several histories of the World War, together with the publishers themselves
and
a staff of assistants, supervised the assembly of these thousands of
pictures.
After painstaking appraisal and selection, the best of these photographs— and only those of unimpeachable authenticity— were finally chosen, and, under the direction of
both editors and publishers, arranged in chronological, integrated order.

books" and "the most accurate and graphic presentation of the horrors of the great World War." Here are a few quotations
