The Meuse-Argonne was the single largest and bloodiest battle in American military history, which defined American military experience in the First World War and profoundly impacted the course of the War and the development of American military doctrine.

The text is organized into seven sections, containing a total of 35 essays which deal with various aspects of this battle and the larger campaign.

For the first time original essays are presented on the French and German participation in
