Joseph A. Altsheler's WORLD WAR I SERIES for young readers features three novels, THE GUNS OF EUROPE, THE FOREST OF SWORDS, and THE HOSTS OF THE AIR, dealing with the world war in Europe.  It was the singular fortune of the author to be present at the beginning of this, the most gigantic struggle in the history of our globe. He was in Vienna the day Austria-Hungary declared war upon Serbia, thus setting the torch that lighted the general conflagration. Returning westward, he reached Munich the day Germany declared war upon Russia. He remained in Germany nearly a month, having witnessed in turn the Austrian and German mobilizations, and then arrived in England in time to see the gathering of the British Empire's armed hosts.

• The Guns of Europe
• The Forest of Swords
• The Hosts of the Air
