The Doughboy Soldier. 1917 WWI (en Inglés) - Christine Goodrich;George D Goodrich

When the United States entered World War I on April 6, 1917, millions of ordinary American men answered the call to serve. Farmers, factory workers, immigrants, and students left behind their homes and families to become soldiers in a war unlike anything the world had ever seen.

The Doughboy Soldier: 1917 WWI follows their journey from the moment America joined what was known as The Great War-through training camps, across the dangerous Atlantic, and into the brutal trenches of France. Facing relentless artillery, poison gas, and close-quarters combat, these men-known as Doughboys-were tested in ways they never imagined.

Through major battles such as Cantigny, Château-Thierry, Belleau Wood, and the Meuse-Argonne Offensive, the book captures the courage, sacrifice, and brotherhood that defined the American experience in World War I. It also reveals the emotional and physical toll of war, and the difficult path soldiers faced when returning home.

With over 4.7 million Americans serving and more than 116,000 losing their lives, this powerful historical account honors the men who fought, the ones who never returned, and the legacy they left behind.

This is not just a story of war-

It is the story of the American Doughboy.
