Guns of August. Got me started on my WW1 binge.

I'd also recommend The First World War by John Keegan, or A World Undone: The Story of the Great War by GJ Meyer for anyone looking for a general history of the entire war.

I've been reading Tuchman's Guns of August recently and really like it. Any other suggestions for World War 1 related books? I've also got Erwin Rommel's Infantry Attacks lined up as my next read.

So today my AP Euro teacher assigned us this book saying it was the final book we have to read for the class, is it any good /lit/? We don't have any tests or projects to do on it, we just have to read this or 13 days, which would you say is better?

By a nice coincidence, the Order in Council, reviving the issue of the War of 1812, appeared exactly on the one hundredth anniversary of the burning of Washington by the British.
