| Summary | "The Americans in the Great War; Volume I: The Second Battle of the Marne" is a historical account published in the early 20th century. This volume focuses on the significant role played by American forces during the Second Battle of the Marne in World War I, detailing both the military operations and the broader context of American involvement in the conflict. The text likely addresses the buildup of American troops and their strategic contributions as Allies aimed to repel the German offensive. The opening of the volume sets the stage for the events surrounding America's entry into World War I and the subsequent mobilization of its forces. It elaborates on the initial uncertainty regarding how the U.S. would engage in the war, ultimately transitioning into a detailed examination of troop deployment, training, and the tactics employed during the Second Battle of the Marne. The narrative emphasizes the rapid growth of the American military presence in France and highlights notable military leaders, such as General Pershing, while foreshadowing the valor and challenges faced by American soldiers during the engagements that would define their contributions to the war effort.
