Hoes van Kevin C. Fitzpatrick: World War I New York (ePUB)

In 1917 one million soldiers, sailors, and Marines departed for France to fight in World War I from New York. The city was an important hub during the war as the recruiting and patriotic efforts continued. Following the Armistice in 1918, more memorials were erected to veterans than for any other event, even the Civil War. Now on the centennial, explore more than 50 locations in New York that have ties to The Great War and tell the stories behind each.
