American Armies and Battlefields in Europe is not only in compact and convenient, one-volume format, but it is little less than indispensable in visiting the American battlefields of World War I in France. It can still be used easily today. Few road changes have occurred, and though new forests or farms may require minor modifications to the itineraries or viewpoints detailed in the book, the original work still remains the most authoritative source for visitors to the AEF's battlefields. By supplementing it with either a contemporary Michelin road map or one of the topographic maps published by France's Institut Géographique National (IGN), any visitor to America's Great War battlefields can easily navigate in France.
