    Nothing about France? May I suggest Robert A. Doughty's "Pyrrhic Victory: French Strategy and Operations in The Great War.

    I think that the American Armies & Battlefields in Europe (aka "The Blue Book") is an essential piece of kit for looking at the AEF. You can also download a PDF version for free from the ABMC website
