While this is a book about World War I, too much of the book is taken up with chapters of biographies. If you've already read biographies about Truman, MacArthur, Pershing, Billy Mitchell, Patton, Marshall, and others, you'll find yourself skipping these chapters. These biographical chapters, encompass the subjects entire lives, not just WWI. I skipped about one-third of the book. Part five "Victory' is only ten pages. It seems the book was written just a bunch of essays, compiled together. Patton and MacArthur's WWII exploits seem out of place.
