"The Operations of the American Navy in France During World War I" by Henry B. Wilson provides a comprehensive account of the American Navy's role on the Atlantic Coast of France during the First World War. The book details the operational methods, which relied heavily on cooperation between the Allied forces, particularly with the French naval service. It outlines the initial phases where American forces, under Rear Admiral W. B. Fletcher and later Admiral Henry B. Wilson, operated primarily with auxiliary craft like yachts and mine-sweepers, before being augmented by destroyers.
