Excerpt from Germany Since 1740 The rise of modern Germany has long attracted the interest of American readers, but interest has often been baffled by the complexities of German state and national life and by the mass of detail which historians have in cluded in their accounts of Germany. Many Americans de sire, I believe, an introduction to German history. I have attempted to meet this desire by choosing the most inter esting period from the accessions of Maria Theresa and Frederick the Great in I 740 down to recent times and presenting only the most important events of this period. Both for facts and for ideas I am indebted to German as well as English printed sources and to numerous Prince ton friends and colleagues. More particular gratitude has been richly merited by Professor Sidney B. Fay of Smith College, who read the manuscript of the whole book with exceeding care and offered many acute observations and suggestions. To John H aughton Coney I can no longer voice acknowledgment of the stimulus which his counsel always gave, for he is gone, and Princeton and American historical science have lost one of their noblest spirits.

Excerpt from The German Emigration to America, Vol. 3: 1709-1740 The great movement Of thousands of Palatines, accom panied by some Swabians and other Germans to England in the spring and summer of 1709, was traced in a most exhaustive and satisfactory manner last year. They had been preceded, it will be'remembered, by a small band under the Rev. Joshua Kocherthal, who, after some delay in England, had reached New York on the last day of 1709. It is our aim to take up the narrative at this point, and, after following the course Of the immigrants to Pennsyl vania, to give some account Of succeeding emigrations, until the year 1740.

Excerpt from A History of German Literature IN writing this volume, it was my task to compress more than a thousand years of literary history into a volume of about four hundred pages. The book was not to be a collection of sheaths garnered here and there in favourite fields, but a real history, dealing with the whole subject coherently and with due regard to the relative importance of periods, writers, and writings. As it was evident that I should be obliged to omit freely and boldly, I decided, first of all, to omit the scholars, philosophers, and men of science, that is, to confine myself pretty closely to literature in the restricted English sense of the word. The broader conception of literature is no doubt the more philosophic, but it is less convenient for a writer who must economise space at every step. The German genius has done much of its best work in scholarship, philosophy, and science, but I was not writing a history of the German genius.

Excerpt from Benjamin Franklin and Germany, Vol. 21 Frederic the Great hated England most cordially and, we may say, most justly, for from the earliest days of his accession to the throne of Prussia, 1740, his uncle, George II, had ever shown an animosity which he took but meagre, if any, pains to con ceal. The real and only cause was an inherent jealousy and fear that this nephew might increase his small domain even by inches, to the detriment Of the English ancestral continental centre, the Electorate of Hanover.

Excerpt from German Classics, Vol. 13 Scmllm's Maria Stuart is one of his most popular plays both in and out of Germany, and it meets with great favour whether seen on the stage, read for amuse ment, or studied in the school-room. The primary con ditions of a full enjoyment of the drama are, of course, that the reader should possess a genuine love of poetry, that he should be able to peruse the drama in the original language, and finally that he should understand the tragedy in all its bearings. In the present edition I have endea voured to furnish all reasonable help to the fulfilment of these two conditions. In general, I have followed the principle adopted in all my former editions of German Classics in this Series, viz. To edit them in the manner in which the ancient Classics have as a rule been edited. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Germany as Described by Great Writers This book is planned on the same lines as my former ones in this series - Holland, Japan and Russia - and with the same aim in view, - that of giving the tourist and general reader a comprehensive glimpse of an important country. The task of selection has not been an easy one, for Germany is so rich in picturesque cities, fine architecture, well stocked museums and art-galleries, beautiful scenery, and legendary rivers, lakes, forests and mountains, that it is difficult to omit places that command admiration. The limitations of a small book, however, admit only of a bird's-eye view of so large and great a country as Germany; and in my selections I have had to keep to general and avoid special descriptions, as a rule. A brief glance at the topography of the country and a historical review of its people is, therefore, followed by descriptions of the four kingdoms and their capitals. A few other cities are added, together with Heligoland, the Rhine, and the famous Harz, Black and Thuringian forests. The next groups of essays deal with social life; and brief surveys of painting, music, politics, and the development of modern industrial Germany close what might be termed a rapid run through this most interesting country.
