As the United States commemorates the centennial of World War I, one of the nation's premier military history institutions pays tribute to the Americans who served and the allies they fought beside to defeat a resourceful enemy with a lavishly illustrated book published in partnership with the Unites States World War One Centennial Commission.
The story of WWI is told through the memorable art it spawned--including posters from nations involved in the conflict--and a taut narrative account of the war's signal events, its major personalities and its tragic consequences; and the timely period photographs that illustrate the awful realities of this revolutionary conflict. Most importantly, this book is a tribute to those who served in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and what would become the Air Force.
It serves as a lasting reminder that our world ignores the history of World War I (and the ensuing WWII) at its peril--lest we forget.

On the fourth Thursday of November, without fail, families across the United States gather for Thanksgiving. Attendance is mandatory, whether or not you want to be there.
Thanksgiving at the Harwood residence looks like a happy affair, all overseen by the sharp eyes of Granny Harwood. To an outsider, the wealthy Harwood family is a tight-knit group with few disputes and a strong commitment to family. Nothing could spoil this special time.
Nothing, that is, except for Uncle Victor dropping dead at the dinner table.
When it becomes clear that Victor has been poisoned, old wounds and grudges threaten to tear the Harwoods apart.
So who killed Uncle Victor? Was it John James, who has never thought much of his sister Victoria's husband? Could it be Victoria, who suspects her husband once had an affair with her brother's long-dead wife? Or perhaps Granny, who would do anything to protect the Harwood family legacy?
A satiric examination of family dynamics, House of Harwood strips away one family's carefully constructed image, revealing the deception, anger, and resentment bubbling just beneath the veneer of normalcy.
