Excerpt from The European War and Its Crowning Result When I was a barefooted boy walking alone through an almost unbroken forest, a problem came sud'denly into my mind and has remained to the pres ent time and has become the nucleus about which my theology has clustered, and which is this: Why are you in con ict with yourself, your spirit and your esh at war with each other? To begin with, I was. Fully conscious that I was not a moral unit, and I was equally certain that it was: not the result of my crea tion by a God that was not in con ict with himself. These assurances were followed as an inevitable with the impression that the con ict in me was the result of Adam's fall. Then I concluded that if I could find what Adam was on trial for I would also find What effect his failure had on his moral economy. Reach ing this point, my next chance to find the truth that I was seeking was in analyzing the garden or test law by the use of the sentence that God passed upon Adam in its vindication, knowing that it was the true con struction of that law, and which I found to be physical death as the direct effect and the moral imprisonment of the intellect and spirit, or inward man, which is Isaiah's lawful captives - capltives in the disabled physical or outward man of the devil - but not oth erwise disabled, having a will to do and a faculty to believe, which left man savable. This made man as' an inevitable dual, morally, having an outward man4 The European War and I ts Crowning Result.

Excerpt from A General Sketch of the European War It was further pointed out that of its very nature this victory must be an imme diate, brief, decisive thing. Delay, a check (improbable or impossible as that check seemed to be) would mar his chances of victory, because both of his forms of superiority would be affected by it.

Excerpt from The European War: August to March During the ten years from 1890 to 1900, this com mercial and industrial expansion went on with ever increasing rapidity, while during this time several causes for friction arose between Germany and Great Britain and Germany embarked on the crowning sin of her career, to British eyes, the creation of a great navy. Up to the launching of the Dreadnought by Great Britain, Germany's efforts at creating a navy able to cope with hers were not remarkably successful, owing to the great advance in constructed ships Great Britain possessed. But the success of this dreadnought type of battle ship, which practically sent all ships constructed be fore it to the junk heap, was Germany's opportunity which she improved, starting in on a well reasoned plan of construction that in a very few years raised her navy to the second strongest in the world, and bade fair in a few years-more to create a fleet fully as strong as that of Great Britain. This latter power did not view this proceeding on Germany's part with equanimity. She has herself for many years added to her fleet on the principle of keeping always equal in strength to the two strongest fleets which could be opposed to it. Germany's program of construction obliged Great Britain to strain every financial nerve to maintain the established proportion; So great was this strain that on one occasion she proposed to Germany that the construction of warships in the future be limited. She was Willing to pledge herself to only build five ships to each three built by Germany. Somehow or other the merits of this proposition did not appear clear to Germany, so the race in construction continued and the British middle classes, who largely had to pay the cost of the British construction, and whom Germany was also injuring by taking their customers from them in the world's markets in fair and open competition, did not have their love for Germany increased.

Excerpt from The War in Europe: Its Causes and Results No excuse will be offered for the smallness of this book in comparison with the vastness of its subject. The author has felt a personal need of some knowledge of those conditions of Europe which bear upon the origin of the Great War of 1914. Thence it was a short road to the thought that other Americans might be interested in a brief but systematic statement of the resources, aims, and difficulties of the European powers; the manner in which they became involved in the war; and the probable results of the struggle to Amer ica and to the rest of the world.

Excerpt from America Fallen: The Sequel to the European War BY way of preface to the second edition, the author wishes to make it clear that Amer ica Fallen was written with the serious pur pose of emphasizing the warnings which have been uttered from year to year, both by the Secretary of War and the Secretary of the Navy. These warnings have dwelt upon the insufficiency of our naval and military forces to resist attack by a first-class power; and America Fallen was written to embody these facts as to our unpreparedness in the form of a connected, dramatic narrative, which would bring home to the public and its Congress the urgent peril of the present con ditions.

At the death of Queen Victoria in 1901, almost every European nation was a monarchy, most linked by close family ties to her and Edward VII, the "uncle of Europe". Prior to the outbreak of World War I, the personal relationships of Edward, and of his successor and son, George V, flourished with the other royal families of Europe. The closeness of the European families was violently interrupted by the outbreak of war in 1914, and the armistice of 1918 brought three empires, namely Germany, Austria-Hungary and Russia, crashing down. Some monarchies were strengthened, and others weakened beyond repair. In this well-researched study, John Van der Kiste has drawn upon previously unpublished material for the Royal Archives, Windsor, to show the realtionships between the crowned heads of Europe in the first part of the 20th century. His account sheds new light on foreign policy leading up to World War I.

WITH A NEW FOREWORD BY TIMOTHY GARTON-ASH A magisterial and acclaimed history of post-war Europe, from Germany to Poland, from Western Europe to Eastern Europe, selected as one of New York Times Ten Best Books of the Year Europe in 1945 was drained. Much of the continent was devastated by war, mass slaughter, bombing and chaos. Large areas of Eastern Europe were falling under Soviet control, exchanging one despotism for another. Today, the Soviet Union is no more and the democracies of the European Union reach as far as the borders of Russia itself. Postwar tells the rich and complex story of how we got from there to here, demystifying Europe's recent history and identity, of what the continent is and has been. ‘It is hard to imagine how a better - and more readable - history of the emergence of today's Europe from the ashes of 1945 could ever be written...All in all, a real masterpiece’ Ian Kershaw, author of Hitler ‘[Judt] dares to expound the sum total of Europe since 1945 in a seamless narrative... This is history-writing with a human face, as well as with brainpower’ Norman Davies, Guardian ‘Brilliant... Judt has written the standard reference work on European post-war history. It will provoke fruitful debate, but I find it hard to imagine that it will ever be surpassed.’ Misha Glenny, Irish Times
