2552 Promise of Greatness: The War of 1914-1918, Edited by George A. Panichas (read 16 Nov 1993) This book consists of 48 separate essays written in 1967-1968 especially for this book, most of them by persons who lived through World War One. Most of the essays are great. Many are by people I've read books by: Robert Graves, Edmund Blunden, Gerald Brenan, Basil Liddell Hart, Charles Carrington, Sir Charles Petrie, Vera Brittain, Trevor Wilson, and Corelli Barrett. This was excellent reading on a subject full of fascination. ( )
