Note:The psychological damage inflicted by the bombardments of World War I was called shell shock, a term that aptly describes the feelings of the World War I world. This program illustrates America's reluctant emergence as a world power and analyzes the social impact of the wholesale loss of life, of husbands and fathers and of sacred ideals such as honor, patriotism and glory that sprang from "the war to end all wars."
