Excerpt from Dantzig Poland
It is very Significant that, right to our own day, this fearful tragedy of Dantzig was either presented as doubtful by the Prussian historians or else only mentioned as of no importance; it was even set in a specially pro pitious light. A modern Prussian professor of history, even though he questions the number of victims given as ten thousand by the sources, cannot deny the fact of a cruel Slaughter, to which fell victims, as he puts it generally.

Excerpt from Dantzig Poland
This book appeared in Polish at the beginning of 1919, and later on in French and German. Its reminiscences of Dantzig's past were intended to foreshadow the future of the city in a restored Union with the restored Polish Republic. Only such a solution could have given satisfaction to the interests of Dantzig, Poland and Europe, and, quite certainly, to those of the old friend of both Dantzig and Poland - Great Britain. Things, however, have turned out differently. Instead of being reunited to Poland, Dantzig has been kept apart from her, and even to a certain extent has been put into an attitude of opposition. Such a solution is against the interests of Dantzig, Poland and Europe. It is, in truth, equally at variance with the real interests of Great Britain herself, although Great Britain was not irresponsible for its materialization. An English edition of this work, therefore, may seem only the more seasonable, as it may foster reflection and help to repair the mistakes which have been committed.
