Item description from seller

vii, [1], 451, [3] pages. Tables. Cover worn and spine chipped. Marbled edges. Previous owner's [Peter J. Linder] address sticker inside front cover. This work was prepared in the Historical Section of the Army War College. It was approved and published by General Douglas MacArthur, Chief of Staff by order of the Secretary of War. Front cover has Harry A. Estep stamped in gold lettering (as is the title of the work). This is the copy that was given to then serving Congressman Estep. Harry Allison Estep (February 1, 1884 - February 28, 1968) was a Republican member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Pennsylvania. He was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He attended Purdue University. He graduated from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law in 1913. He was admitted to the bar in 1914 and commenced practice in Pittsburgh. He served as assistant district attorney of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, from 1917 to 1927. Estep was elected as a Republican to the Seventieth, Seventy-first, and Seventy-second Congresses. He resumed the practice of law until his retirement in 1964. He died in Oakland, Pennsylvania, and is buried in Allegheny Cemetery. This Order of Battle provides outline histories of the American divisions which served in Europe during World War I. This copy was from the collection of Peter J. Linder of Ellicott City, Maryland. Peter J. Linder was educated at Princeton University (1949 AB) and Syracuse University (1954, MA). Peter served in the Army National Guard. He was an avid genealogist and performed extensive research on World War I casualties. The purpose of this work by the Historical Section of the Army War College was to present the essential facts of the participation of the land forces of the United States in the World War. It deals with the command, composition, and operations of large units. This volume contains outline histories of the divisions with served in Europe during the war. Original sources, the majority of which are official papers of the War Department, for the basis. The command lists were compiled for this publication by the Adjutant General. The front lines of the divisions during battle are based primarily on a series of specials studies by the American Battle Monuments Commission and an analysis by the Historical Section of the original material on file in the War Department. Units smaller than a regiment are not shown unless they were engaged in combat. Credit for participation in an operation is given a division from the time it entered corps reserve, provided the operation was in progress, or when it assumed command of a front without passing through corps reserve. The contents are presented as: Preface, Regular Army Divisions, National Guard Divisions, National Army Divisions, Composition of Divisions, Tables of Organization of Divisions, Calendar, and Abbreviations.
