Excerpt from Germany Before the War Eastern question. Throughout the crisis, the Great Powers, by the conferences of their ambassadors and the utterances of their statesmen, had shown their earnest desire for peace. The Triple Alliance and the Triple Entente, those two good-natured giants, both showed the same conciliatory disposition. The balance of power between these two groups com pelled them, even had they wished otherwise, to maintain a pacific attitude, while the Balkan con flagration, being thus localized, was dying out at their feet. After so searching a test, the prospect for the future seemed bright indeed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Germany and Belgium Before and During the War Her acts go to show that the 'strategic plan of German military writers was identical with that of the Grand Staff, inasmuch as everybody knows that the Empire had multiplied railway lines of a purely strategic value in the district comprised between the Rhine and the frontiers of Belgium and Luxemburg with a view to the rapid concentration of her troops on those frontiers. The develop ment of these railway lines coincided with the creation of the huge camp at Elsenborn. What is more, everybody knows that Germany made persistent and strenuous efforts to obtain from Belgium the linking up of the Belgian railways with the German, more especially the connection malmedy-stavelot, and the build ing of a new railway line which, passing Vise and avoiding Liege, would have shortened the existing line which connects Aix-la Chapelle with central Belgium. So much for Germany's deeds. Let us now turn to her words. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from German Policy Before the War The following pages are somewhat expanded, especially in the latter part, from notes of a lecture given before the Royal Historical Society in January last year. The main thesis which I endeavoured then to put before my audience, namely that the establishment of German influence in the Balkans and in the Turkish Empire is the fundamental object of German policy, appears to me to have received corroboration from recent events in south-eastern Europe. These events are not to be regarded as some have regarded them, as afterthoughts, or as the desperate efforts of a Power thwarted in other directions on the contrary they are incidents in the execution of a plan conceived long ago, to which the crushing, or - ii that proved impossible - the maim ing, of France and Russia was but the necessary preliminary step. I desire to express my gratitude to Mr. Lucien Wolf for valuable assistance given me in regard to the last three chapters.

Excerpt from Why Germany Made War Belgium was created a neutral country after the Napoleonic wars, and its neutrality guaranteed by England, France, Austria, and Prussia, because it was felt that the cock-pit of Europe should be nade neutral as the best means of securing a lasting peace.

Excerpt from The War Spirit of Germany This backwardness in political thought and action constitutes one of the tragedies of the history of Germany. 'in political development Germany is where England stood in the days of Elizabeth. Un der Elizabeth, Parliament played but a small part in the life of the nation. True, it met, though sometimes only at intervals of several years, and it had control of the purse and of the making of new laws. But it voted revenues that the sovereign retained through life without further appeal to Parliament, and, since the sovereign usually thought there were already laws enough and desired little change, no new ones were passed for many years at a time. For the rest, the sovereign and the circle surrounding her controlled and spent the revenue; she named whom she would to office, kept up the army and navy, and resisted any attempt by the representatives of the nation to interfere in these things. W'ith slight differences the German Emperor does the same thing to-day. The German people have no more control over the government of Germany than the English people had over that of England in the long distant days before the struggle with Charles I to secure what Elizabeth had always refused to yield.

Excerpt from German Plans for the Next War The plan was Prussia's, and Prussia meant to assume the lead, meant to be the dominating element in all Germany. The other states needed to become accustomed to Prussia's leading strings before the eventual permanent state was formed. The final step was soon taken. Gathering clouds of war with France furnished both the reason and the excuse, and under the guidance Of Prussia, the North German Confederation was turned in to the German Empire. The war with France taught the new German Empire that war could be an extremely profitable enterprise. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Assault: Germany Before the Outbreak and England in War-Time; A Personal Narrative This is not a war book. It has not been my privi lege at any stage of the Great blood-letting to come into close contact with the spectacular clash and din of the fray. Abler pens than mine, many of them wielded by the neutral hands of American colleagues, are immortalizing the terrible, yet irresistibly fascinating, scenes of this most stupendous drama. But every drama has its scenario and its prologue and its behind the-curtain scenes - none ever written was so rich in these preliminaries and accessories as is Europe's epic. To have witnessed and lived through some of these was vouchsafed me; and to take American readers with me down the line of the past year's recollections and impressions is the sole object of this unpretentious effort. History, Carlyle said, was some one's record of personal experiences. To such experiences, as far as possible, the pages of this book are confined.

Excerpt from Truth About Germany: Facts About the War RY to realize, every one of you, what we are going through! Only a few weeks ago all of us were peacefully following our several vocations. The peasant was gathering in this summer's plentiful crop, the factory hand was working with accustomed vigor. Not one human being among us dreamed of war. We are a nation that wishes to lead a quiet and industrious life. This need hardly be stated to you Americans. You, of all others, know the temper of the German who lives within your gates. Our love of peage is so strong that it is not regarded by us in the light of a virtue, we Simply know it to be an inborn and integral portion of ourselves. Since the foundation of the German Empire in the year 1871, we, living in the centre of Europe, have given an example of tranquillity and peace, never once seeking to profit by any momentary difficulties of our neighbors. Our commercial extension, our financial rise in the world, is far removed from any love of adventure, it is the fruit of painstaking and plodding labor. We are not credited with this temper, because we are insufficiently known. Our situation and our way of thinking are not easily grasped.

Excerpt from Germany and the Next War We have been capable of soaring upwards. Mighty deeds raised Germany from political disruption and feeble ness to the forefront of European nations. But we do not seem willing to take up this inheritance, and to advance along the path of development in politics and culture. We tremble at our own greatness, and shirk the sacrifices it demands from us. Yet we do not wish to renounce the claim which we derive from our glorious past. How rightly Fichte once judged his countrymen when he said the German can never wish for a thing by itself he must always wish for its contrary also.
