No Man's Land — John Toland
1918: The end of the war to end all wars. The end of an era for victors and vanquished alike.
When Germany launched the Ludendorf Offensives -- the most massive military bombardment of World War I -- they seemed certain to win. But when American troops began arriving in droves, the Allies' certain defeat became a decisive victory.
No Man's Land takes us into the trenches, behind enemy lines, into military strategy sessions and through the corridors of power in London, Paris, Berlin, and Washington in a brilliant account of one of the most fateful years in Western history.
Drawing on new sources -- diaries, memoirs, vivid personal experiences -- here is a book that for sheer excitement, drama, vigor, and emotional impact rivals the greatest novels, history marvelously told by the incomparable John Toland.
"A compelling human picture...a marvelous job by a master of the big-canvas history." Business Week
