The United States in World War I: Religious Issues and the War

In the United States, the Great War was not only a military and economic issue, but a challenge to religion. Had God forgotten His children to allow such slaughter? Why didn't God just stop the war? Could a Christian man fight in battle without abandoning his beliefs?

This collection of books, published from 1916 through 1920, directly address these issues. It is an historic view of how priests, ministers and laymen viewed the war and as a guidebook during the first and greatest military and social challenge to the United States in the Twentieth Century.
