Americans All: Foreign-born Soldiers in World War I (Williams-Ford Texas A&M University Military History Series) ReviewIn Americans All, Ford has successfully challenged longstanding assumptions about the immigrant experience during World War I and documented a key aspect of the army's modernization during the war. Nearly half a million foreign-born soldiers of forty-six different nationalities served in the wartime army. With one in five soldiers foreign-born, including many who did not speak English, the army faced a serious challenge training these men for battle. In marked contrast to the conformity demanded of foreign-born civilians on the homefront, Ford's meticulous research in official army records reveals that army officials demonstrated a remarkable sensitivity and respect for Old World cultures when formulating the training and recreational regimes of foreign-born troops. This is a well-written and important book whose blending of military and social history will interest readers interested in the military, the immigrant experience and the First World War.Americans All: Foreign-born Soldiers in World War I (Williams-Ford Texas A&M University Military History Series) Overview
