While North Carolina's role in the First World War has yet to attract such intense scholarly interest, a much-needed picture of the wartime Tar Heel state has nevertheless begun to emerge from newly published firsthand accounts of the war and sustained attention to the state's wartime politicians. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The essays in \u003ci\u003eNorth Carolina's Experience during the First World War, \u003c\/i\u003eskillfully edited by Shepherd W. McKinley and Steven Sabol, provide in-depth interpretation of the state's involvement in WWI. As topics range from soldiers and the military, to women and the home front, to politics and labor issues, a detailed picture emerges of the war's influence on the developing modern state and the ascendant bureaucratic social order. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As this anthology makes clear, wars provide the opportunity for unsettling old patterns of power and culture. Unlike the Civil War and Second World War, however, the First World War would have relatively little effect on North Carolina's race relations, class arrangements, gender roles, economic order, and political leadership. What changed more dramatically was the relationship between business and government. Indeed, government took an unprecedented place in the fabric of society and the economy as the \"war to end all wars\" left its indelible mark on the individuals and families who served. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eSHEPHERD W.
