This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Causes, and Meaning of the Great War The principal reason for the teaching of history is to explain the meaning of human life, and in this way to reveal to the learner his relations to the social and moral world of which he is a part. The understanding thus afforded is the best equipment possible for intelligent and useful service in the cooperative life and work of a democracy like ours. With this conception of the function and value of history and of the importance of making clear to American boys and girls our national ideals as well as our international relations and responsibilities, the author has prepared this book, upon request of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, for use in the upper grammar grades and the lower classes of high schools. Emphasis has been put upon the reasons why our country entered the conflict and the large part she played in winning victory for the cause of democracy and humanity. One of the author's aims has been to show how the new Germany, which came into being in 1871 as the outcome of three successful wars, differed from the old, and how her wonderful material success led to an intense desire for world conquest and world domination.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Immediate Causes of the Great War The object of this volume is to narrate briefly the direct causes of the European war as they are given in the published documents of the belligerents. These sources are abundantly adequate for determining the immediate responsibility of each nation and apportioning the guilt for this great crime. It may be thought that, inasmuch as each government in publishing its official correspondence has tried to convict its enemies and clear itself and its allies, the statements made are so biased as not to be accepted as evidence. This, however, is not the case. The documents corroborate each other sufficiently to show that statements of fact given in official despatches by ambassadors to foreign ministers and vice versa can usually be accepted at face value. The numerous cross-references in the published correspondence enable us sometimes to detect false claims based on the omission, misinterpretation, or even the distortion of facts. Some discrepancies, however, are irreducible, and where such occur, the evidence presented by both sides is given.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Causes of the Great War The appearance of the German Empire was a rude disturb ance of the old political equilibrium in Europe. Bismarck sought readjustment by a new grouping of nations about Ger many. Austria, who soon came to be dependent upon German support, was firmly attached in alliance. To these two powers Russia had been drawn for a while, but it was soon apparent that the question of the Balkans made the interests of Germany's partners irreconcilable. During the russo-turkish War she was forced to choose which of her friends she would in the future have, and the support which she gave to Austria made it certain that Russia would soon seek her interests elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Causes and Consequences of the War This book is devoted to an attempt to deduce from the political and economic causes of the present war the principles governing the conditions which alone can assure a lasting peace. Errors of diplomacy arc fraught with more disastrous consequences than errors on the battlefield. For example, the blunder of Talleyrand and Lord Castlereagh in 1815 in forcing the Rhine Province and Westphalia on Prussia when she coveted Saxony (Russia being fully in sympathy with her), was unquestionably the first step towards the wars of 1866 and 1870. Again, we must look for the real origin of the Balkan Wars of 1912-13 and the present world-conflict in that coalition of 1878 against Russia, into which Bismarck and Lord Beaconsfield dragged France, and which substituted the Treaty of Berlin for the Treaty of San Stefano. A public opinion educated enough to appreciate the problems to be solved can alone guarantee us against a repetition of the errors of esoteric diplomacy. It is the duty of the Allies to make better preparations for peace than they did for war. The Germans seem to be making a point of arousing and deserving the bitterest hatred. Now hatred is a force in actual warfare which is not without its value, for it can only be satisfied by that decisive victory failing which peace can be but a temporary and uneasy truce. But neither individuals nor peoples can live on hate. It is no substitute for food and only ends by devouring him who cherishes it. That way lies destruction.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great War: The Causes and the Waging of It The following short story of the Great War was prepared by the author in the winter and spring of 1917 when it became probable that the United States would be drawn in through the resumption by Germany of unrestricted submarine activity against neutral shipping and neutral noncombatants. It was thought that in the Southern States, especially, a clear understanding of the causes of the war and a truthful account of the waging of it, up to our entrance in it, might be of some value to those who might not have given much attention to the consideration of such before this time. In this connection, if it was advisable for the representatives of the French and British Governments to indicate to us their mistakes, it was thought by the author appropriate that, while revealing, to some extent, the splendid courage, devoted patriotism and wonderful determination of the Allies to exhibit, at the same time, the evidence of courage, capacity and determination of our foes which a study of the war reveals. Also, if there have been mistakes made by our Allies, as yet not as apparent to them as to some of us, the revelation of such might be as helpful to us and to them as was the recital by them of those they did see and thought necessary to expose to us so clearly.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War: Its Causes and Consequences The age is revolutionary. The present is an epoch in the world's history of transition - a sort of moral exodus of the nations - which has lasted now some three centuries; and no stability in governments anywhere, much less here, can be looked for until the passage from the old regime to the new has been completed. To a close observer, the social ebullition in this coun try has long been of a threatening character. From the birth of our government, its elements have been in an uneasy state; and the bosom of society has more than once been agitated by the throes of coming convulsions. The time has arrived for these inevitable disturbances, so long concealed, to manifest their dangerous activity. An open rupture is at last reached; and however it may be allayed temporarily, will be again and again renewed until the foundations of society are broken up, or the principles which now lie at its base are extruded, or so modified by the introduction of others that their excesses will be entirely counteracted.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Origins of the Great War: Or the British Case The War and its origins have been treated of from many different points of view, notably by the instructive "Why we are at War" (Clarendon Press, Oxford) and by the excellent Oxford Pamphlets, but, in all its essentials, the British Case as here submitted is short and simple. In a court of law Germany would probably be held to have "no case"; yet she still protests and appeals to neutrals so persistently that she surely "protests too much." Qui s'excuse s'accuse. While the following pages were in the press confirmations of their accuracy have been almost daily coming to light. Thus, in the Times of 9th December, appears a notice of the sixth Report of the Belgian Commission on the violations of international law by the Germans. Like its predecessors, this report proves to the hilt that the wholesale massacres of innocent civilians, women, and children, the pillage and destruction of open towns and villages, and other outrages were deliberately planned and ruthlessly carried out. It forms a complete answer, borne out by abundance of other evidence, to the assertion by twenty-two German Universities that no atrocities were committed by the German troops!
