President Woodrow Wilson declared in his War Message to Congress that the country’s objective was “to vindicate the principles of peace and justice in the life of the world.” With this message resonating in Americans across the country, citizens participated in many volunteer efforts at home and abroad, including traveling across the world in the U. S. armed forces. The Allied War Exposition The Allied War Exposition was a World War I exhibit that traveled by special train throughout the United States from 1917 until 1919.

The prisoners of war who made Little Britain in Berlin 28 July 2014Last updated at 19:29 ET By Stephen Evans BBC News, Berlin When thousands of British men were interned in Germany at the start of World War One, they rolled up their sleeves and made the best of it. In their prison camp on the River Spree in Berlin, they built a Little Britain - using the barbed wire as a trellis on which a thousand flowers bloomed. More than 5,000 British civilians found themselves caught in Germany when war broke out. They were rounded up and held captive for the duration of hostilities in sheds and stables on a racetrack at Ruhleben, on the western outskirts of Berlin. Unlike prisoner of war camps, Ruhleben was not a labour camp. Accordingly, the inmates selected "captains" for each block, with a "captains' committee" running the camp, and sub-committees organising everything from the camp's own postage stamps to a police service. The result was a version of the homeland in the heart of enemy territory. A Jewish view Ruhleben prison camp record

Fellowship of the Ring 60th Anniversary: How the Masterpiece Reflects JRR Tolkien's WW1 Involvement British troops climbing from their trench during the Battle of the SommeGetty In a letter to Professor L.W. Forster written on New Year's Eve in 1960, JRR Tolkien reemphasised that his fictional middle-earth was not reliant on the events of the two World Wars which spanned much of the first half of his life. "Personally, I do not think that either war had any influence upon either the plot or the manner of its unfolding," he wrote. In an afterthought, he added that some scenes may have been inadvertently influenced by the Battle of the Somme in 1916: "Perhaps in the landscape. The Dead Marshes and the approaches to the Morannon owe something to Northern France after the Battle." Although Tolkien vehemently denied the First World War had any direct influence on his fantasy masterpieces The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, fans and critics alike state otherwise.

The Hue of Battle: The World of Trench Warfare in Color - SPIEGEL ONLINE - News - International What the public remembers, it remembers in pictures. Wars, even more than other events, tend to survive in the popular imagination not just as a chronology of events, but also as an archive of images. When it comes to remembering the World War I, most of us have had to content ourselves with a visual inheritance almost exclusively limited to black and white photography. In a new book edited by historian Peter Walther, an extraordinary set of color images from the wartime photographer Hands Hilderbrand will be published for the first time. As Europeans massacred one another with unprecedented efficiency on the fields of Flanders, they were greeted with sunshine and lush landscapes. Color photography has been practiced since the late nineteenth century, but until very recently, only a handful of experts were aware of the existence of color documentation of World War I.
