Neuware - 'Industrial America in the World War; The Strategy Behind the Line, 1917-1918' offers a comprehensive and authoritative account of the massive industrial and economic mobilization that fueled the United States' efforts during the First World War. Written by Grosvenor B. Clarkson, who served as the Director of the Council of National Defense, this work provides an unparalleled insider's perspective on the complex coordination between the federal government and private industry required to sustain a modern global conflict.The narrative meticulously details the formation and operation of the War Industries Board, illustrating how the nation's manufacturing might was harnessed to provide the necessary supplies, weaponry, and infrastructure for the front lines. Clarkson explores the 'strategy behind the line,' emphasizing that the victory in Europe was as much a triumph of organizational genius and industrial output as it was of military maneuver. By documenting the rapid transformation of the American economy and the birth of new administrative precedents, this work remains a vital historical record.
