Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Issue
It would have been easy to increase the bulk of the book, by including in it selections from the press and from the pamphlets issued in such abund ance by private individuals. I have deliberately refrained from doing so. Nothing is more per nicious than the modern habit of quoting freely in other countries the foolish and exaggerated utterances of'obscure individuals and newspapers, or the noisy leaders of extreme factions, who are to be found in every country, and by transporting them across the frontier giving them an import ance which no one at home would attribute to them. It is a habit to which even distinguished German historians have given their support, and we find the official spokesmen of the Government, and men such as Prince Biilow, quoting as evi dence of English intentions the words of English men which are treated at home with the neglect that they deserve. In this I do not propose to imitate them; I have endeavoured to confine myself to evidence as to what seems to be the considered Opinion of the responsible Government, the leaders of parties, the corporate Opinion of influential associations, or the writing of men who appear to carry real weight in Germany.

Excerpt from The Issue
Chapters I, II, III, and IV of this book have already appeared in the Nineteenth Century and After. Chapter V is reprinted from the Westminster Gazette. I have to express my obligation to the Editors for permission to reprint them in the present form. They are reprinted almost without alteration, and I have not attempted to change them, even in those cases where what was written some months ago would now be expressed rather differently.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book engages with the many suggestions for peace terms that circulated in Germany during the First World War, examining the true nature of the conï ict between Germany and the rest of Europe. Centring on the issue of whether Germany posed a threat to Europeâs security and balance of power, the author explores the diverse political opinions on the matter at the time and considers the impact of the war on German society. Of particular interest is the authorâs analysis of the German psyche, which he believes needed to be broken through military defeat for the nation to learn its lesson. The author argues that, for peace to come and last, Germany would have to relinquish its ambitions of European domination and respect the right of other nations to their own political destiny. This thought-provoking book is a vital read for anyone seeking to understand the origins and consequences of the First World War and the lessons Europe drew from the devastating conflict. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330858646_0
