HIT: Books on World War I

[Meadows Judy <psj000@MAIL.CONNECT.MORE.NET>]

Dear LM_Netters:

I had some useful responses to my query about finding good books on World
War I.  So, I decided to post a hit of responses FYI.

************
Do a search on Amazon.  You can use it just like books in print.
You can also try the library congress, but you will get lots of books
out of print.

I don't know if this can help you...
try this site:

Hi - just flipping through Grolier's catalog this AM, and they have a set on
WWI specifically.

I have a series purchased from Grolier which the students use.

Grolier has an Encyclopedia of WWI

You're right, there doesn't seem to be much.  However, I do have 1 called
First World War by John D. Clare, Editor. published by harcourt Brace and
Comnpany, 0152000879  and 1 called World War I by Tom McGowen. published by
Watts 053120149X

Have you tried War Game by Michael Foreman.  It is a picture book, but it
is very powerful and based on a true event during WWI.

Hello.  I'd Suggest these titles: The First World War: A Complete History by
Martin Gilbert ISBN: 0-8050-1540-X, as well as Jay Winter and Blaine
Baggett's The Great War and the Shaping of the 20th Century,
ISBN:0-670-87119-2. The American Heritage World War I book is still quite
good.

Try the website entitled "Trenches on the Web".
 http://www.worldwar1.com/
It's a wonderful site all about World War I.  Anyway, there is
a section of book reviews.  It provides journal titles, book reviews,
and many other links.  It's by far the best web site out there on World
War I and I'm sure you'll find some good titles there.
