Book excerpt: Excerpt from A War Diary in Paris 1914-1917 When the World War broke out, we were passing the hot weather in our 'camp' on Squam Lake, among the forest-clad foothills of the White Mountains, and shortly after I sent the following letter: Sir: I have the honor to volunteer my services, for any emergency work of a diplomatic character, at home or abroad, with or without remuneration. I have had the benefit of seven years' (1902- 1909)training and experience, as Secretary of Legation and Charged d'Affaires in Peking, as Secretary of Embassy and Charged d'Affaires in Mexico, and as Minister Plenipotentiary in Nicaragua. I have a good knowledge of French. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

These notes, jotted down at odd moments in a diary, are published with the idea of recording, day by day, the aspect, temper, mood, and humor of Paris, when the entire manhood of France responds with profound spontaneous patriotism to the call of mobilization in defense of national existence. France is herself again. Her capital, during this supreme trial, is a new Paris, the like of which, after the present crisis is over, will probably not be seen again by any one now living. As a youth in the spring of 1871, I witnessed Paris, partly in ruins, emerging from the scourges of German invasion and of the Commune. As a correspondent of the New York Herald, under the personal direction of my chief, Mr. James Gordon Bennett - for whom I retain a deep-rooted friendship and admiration for his sterling, rugged qualities of a true American and a masterly journalist - it was my good fortune, during fourteen years, to share the joys and charms of Parisian life.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diary of a French Private: War Imprisonment 1914 1915 Gaston Riou was born on January 7, 1883. He is a native of the Cevennes, the region from which are derived three of the most distinguished among modern French psychologists, Melchior de Vogue, Auguste Sabatier, and Paul Bourget. The Cevenole family from which he springs played an active part in the wars of religion. On the mother's side he is related to Jacques de Vaucanson, the leading French mechanical engineer of the eighteenth century, and also to Majal Desubas, the last Huguenot martyr, executed at Montpellier in 1747. Thus by family tradition he is liberal, nonconformist, and republican. Propagandist by temperament, he devoted himself at an early age to the study of Christian origins. In 1905, at the Sorbonne, he wrote a thesis upon the De unitate of St. Cyprian. His first published writings dealt with the modernist movement of Loisy, Murri, and Tyrrell, and they attracted considerable attention in Italy and in Germany. The ardour which inspired them was very different from the rabies theologica. The young author, though Calvinist by conviction, adopted an attitude remote from partisanship, his view being, "Whatever is Christian, is ours." He insisted upon the need for a new synthesis, embracing at once the ancient faith and the actual conditions and the social life and thought of our day. He contended that the non-Roman churches scattered throughout the world might well constitute the embryo of a new Catholicism. But above alt, in this writer simultaneously republican and Christian believer, was manifest the earnest desire to reconcile the France of '89 with the Christian ideal and the longing to witness and to assist in the renovation of his country. Writing of him at this period, M. Emile Faguet, a noted French critic, declared: "His ardour, his fire, his impetus, the rush of his blood, are all instinct with the passion of patriotism." In the year 1913 this admixture of religious uneasiness and nationalist hope found expression in a volume entitled Aux ecoutes de la France qui vient, which from the first attracted widespread attention. Above all, this work embodies faith in France, and the leaders among the younger men of the country rallied round him who had ventured to proclaim this faith.

As he handed it over he said: The 'c. In C.' is making a change which you will discover when you reach Tours. Two days later I presented the order to Major General Har bord. It was the first that he received in his new capacity as chief of the Services of Supply - the army behind the army. Such was my introduction to the man whom it was my good fortune to encounter in varying and dramatic circumstances throughout these remaining months that decided the war of wars.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Diplomatic Diary, 1917 This volume is not a carefully prepared treatise on the war. It does not set out to prove anything. It is merely what its title indicates - a private journal jotted down hastily from day to day in odd moments, when more pressing duties would permit. Much material has been eliminated as of little interest. Other material of interest has been left out because it cannot be published at this time. It is believed, however, that what is printed here will suffice to give some idea of life in Belgium during the first few months of the war. I have eliminated from the journal most of the matter about the early history of the Commission for Relief in Belgium. My day-to-day record did not do any sort of justice to the subject, and since it was not adequate, I have preferred to eliminate all but such casual reference to the relief work as is necessary to maintain the narrative. I am reconciled to this treatment of the subject by the knowledge that the story will be told comprehensively and well by Dr. Vernon Kellogg, who will soon publish an authoritative history of the Commissions work. As former Director of the Commission in Belgium, he has the detailed knowledge of its workings and the sympathetic understanding of its purpose which peculiarly fit him for the task. The work of the Commission is of a scope and significance that few of us realise. It is without doubt the greatest humanitarian enterprise in history, conducted under conditions of almost incredible difficulty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paris Sees It Through: A Diary, 1914-1919 On the other hand, if the universe is an accident, and emanates from no mind at all, this life is all we have, and we cling to it. We do our best to make safe the thing we believe in. This world for the materialist; the next for the devout; the inner world for the thinker and the emotionalist. The human spirit may be all that it is said to be a dauntless and heroic affair, equal to facing any odds. The human body, however, which is the casket of the spirit, is unfortunately softer than the greater part of inanimate substances. Had it been harder than the earth, than iron, than steel, we might have made a show of safety in our arrangements. But there would have remained lightning and ice and fog, and the possibility of meteorites, which can go to rest in a granite mountain like a fat man jumping into a feather-bed. The fact is, we are searching for a thing we cannot conceive. Safety is as much outside our conscious ness as some star of which we have never heard. We cannot conceive, by the highest efforts of our brains, what it would be like for one instant to have the esh of our body safe in this world or the comfort of our spirit assured in the next. The sensation, if it were imparted to us by a. Miracle, would probably kill us. The nearest approach to it known to us is the ecstasy of a revivalist meeting, which usually bears an ample aftermath of lunacy on the one hand and crime on the other. Those who are strong enough to survive the feeling of being saved without losing their mental balance quite frequently go and commit some Specially vile kind of offence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Diary of an American Woman: To the Proclamation of the Holy War, 1914 Geneva, Switzerland, June 28th, 1914. The dreaming, drifting summer days, by the blue waters of Lake Leman, are rudely shaken by the ominous report that comes thundering over the Alps of the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, heir to the Throne of the Dual Monarchy, in the Bosnian City of Sarajevo. All the world stands aghast at the accomplished deed of a Servian serf, a deed that adds one more drama of sorrow to the grief-bowed Monarch of the Austrian realm and stabs the twain country a heart thrust, that is soon to sound the trumpet call of war over the length and breadth of Europe. Unto the royal dead, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his Consort, the Duchess of Hohenberg, all honor is given midst traces and trappings of wo and the entire world renders sympathy to the aged Emperor's court and country while farseeing seers, gazing at War clouds, watch and wait the effect and verdict of a nation's grief and grievance. To those not in the scheme of things, only silence seems to follow, the dead-death silence, the re-action, the torpor, the dazedness of tragedy hangs heavy over the Empire of Emperor Joseph.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters and Diary of Alan Seeger, 1917 Those who have read the published poems of Alan Seeger and the sympathetic sketch of his life by Mr. William Archer, in his introduction, cannot have failed to appreciate the motives that led the young American, in his great love for France and her cause, to take up arms in her behalf as a common soldier in the ranks of the Foreign Legion. But it is one thing to yield to a generous impulse and quite another to adhere faithfully to a high resolve through wretched and tiresome hours of unaccustomed hardship and distasteful surroundings. In these pages, written from day to day and from week to week, unchanged and unpolished by afterthought, in the endeavor to make them appear nobler and more consistent than they were when first set down in diary or intimate letter, - no word will be found, either of complaint, of wavering or of discouragement.

No one among us doubted that the deciding vote - war or peace - rested with Emperor William. I must confess that I alone in that party advanced the idea that he would cast it for the cause.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from War-Chronicle: War Journal, Soldiers' Letters, Pictures of the War His Majesty the Kaiser who is at present on the battlefield with his troops, has asked me to bring his best wishes and most sincere greetings to the German peoples' representatives with whom he is so closely united, in all storms and dangers in the one common cause, the welfare of the "Vaterland" as long as he lives. (Lively applause.) At the same time lie has asked me to convey his thanks to the nation for the unparalleled sacrifice and devotion, as well as the enormous amount of work, which on the field and at home, all classes have accomplished arid will continue to do. (Loud applause). Our first thoughts too turn to the Kaiser, the Army, the Navy, and our soldiers, who are fighting for Germany's honour on the battlefield and the high seas. (Great applause.) Our eyes turn to them full of pride and confidence, as well as to our Austro-Hungarian brothers-in-arms, who fight the great fight with their traditional courage in true unity with us. (Long and lively applause.) Quite recently an ally joined us in this fight, which was forced upon us, who knows that with the destruction of the German Empire her own independence as a state would be at an end. (Lively cries of Hear! Hear!) And no matter how powerful the coalition which our enemies have brought to crush us, let us hope that they will be made to feel that the arm of our brave ally can reach the weak parts of their world power. (Great applause). On 4th August, the Reichstag proclaimed the firm wish of the entire German people to take up the fight forced upon us and defend our independence to the end. Since then great things have been achieved. Who can enumerate the heroic and glorious feats of the different armies, regiments, squadrons, companies, cruisers, and submarines, in a war whose line of battle extends all through Europe, through the whole world? The future will relate and appreciate it. In spite of the enormous numerical superiority of our adversaries, the incomparable bravery of our troops has brought the war into the enemies' countries. There we stand firm and strong, and can look forward to the future full of confidence. (Storm of applause.) But the strength of the enemy's resistance is not yet broken. We have not yet accomplished our task. The nation will prove itself equal to this demand in the same spirit which it has shown up to this, for we must and intend to continue the struggle in which we are engaged, surrounded by enemies, to a good end.
