Chapter 23: War and Revolution, 1914-1919
The Twentieth- Century Crisis 1914–1945 The eriod in Perspective The period between 1914 and 1945 was one of the most destructive in the history of humankind. As many as 60 million people died as a result of World Wars I and II, the global conflicts that began and ended this era. As World War I was followed by revolutions, the Great Depression, totalitarian regimes, and the horrors of World War II, it appeared to many that European civilization had become a nightmare. By 1945, the era of European domination over world affairs had been severely shaken. With the decline of Western power, a new era of world history was about to begin.

The Patriotism of Hardin County, Tennessee
McKinnon 1 Lauren McKinnon HIST 499 Research Paper December 5, 2017 The Patriotism of Hardin County, Tennessee McKinnon 2 The United States entered into the first World War on April 6, 1917, and the country found itself being asked to give in ways that it had not given since the Civil War. The citizens of many towns and cities in the United States were angry or confused as to the reasons why they should be dragged into a world war. A county located on the Tennessee River, bordering the Alabama and Mississippi state lines, however, embraced the war campaign. Hardin County and its people quickly began preparing for, and participating in, the war effort. Many of the activities which occurred in Hardin County during the United States’ involvement in World War I were recorded in the local newspaper, the Courier. The Courier had been the main source of news for Hardin County since 1884 and the various communities in Hardin County depended on it to inform them of both local and universal events. Between April 1917 and November 1918, the Courier captured the patriotism of Hardin Countians in articles about the war efforts on the homefront (the Red Cross, War Savings Stamps, Liberty Loans and Bonds, and the YMCA), how the community responded (schools and churches), and reports from the soldiers during their time in the military. In March of 1918, the book Over the Top began to be published in the Courier.1 It was written by Arthur Guy Empey who “convinced the British Army to let him enlist, shipped out for France, saw… action in the trenches, and was badly wounded at the Somme” which led to his “[eventual discharge] and [shipment] back home, where he got to work on a book about his experiences.”2 In preparation for it, short advertisements were placed in the local and personal section. -
