World War 1 Historical Information
The purpose of this website is to share with anyone who is interested in World War I, materials that I have collected for use in my classes. I’ve taught World History, American History, and AP European History in both college and high school. After thirty-four years of teaching, I’ve ended up with a lot of “stuff”.
I have been looking for a way to share the paper items I’ve collected without having to sell them. The articles, stories, and information listed on this website have been taken from out-of-copyright books, magazines, and pamphlets that I personally own. Content from the following sources is on this website:
Learning to Fly In The U.S. Army
War Cyclopedia
Grace Harlowe with the Yankee Shock Boys at St. Quentin
The Attitude of Great Britain in the Present War
A School History of the Great War
Click on the links on the side for further information and the content of these original World War I materials.
I also do a daily Podcast called History According to Bob.
