Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Only Alternative to War How can we do away with war, and yet retain the good effects of war upon the race That is the question which is suggesting itself to an increasing number of minds to-day. It might perhaps have been expected that, in full view of the horrors now being enacted in Flanders and Poland, men would have become willing to declare that any kind of life would be better than war. But nothing of the sort is happening. The common judgement declares that many things might be worse than war. Not only might treachery and dishonour be worse than war, but mere' peace might be worse. Probably states of peace have often been morally worse than the present state of the world. A society engrossed in a sordid scramble for gold, and suffering the enervation that comes with luxury, is immeasurably lower than a society in arms and because a perception of this is becoming common the cause of peace does not greatly prosper. The ideals of the pacifist do not stir the heart, and even while English homes are one after another plunged in the sorrow of bereavement the conviction that the soldier's calling is a high one grows among us. It would be hard indeed to prove that the people of Great Britain are less military in spirit than they were a year ago, in spite of all the horrors which war has wrought.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of T.E. Lawrence (of Arabia) and Robert Graves is A. Hamilton Gibbs' classic World War I memoir of his time in service to king and country. With humor, intelligence, sorrow, and bitterness he truthfully, nakedly, vividly, reveals the experience not only of one soldier in the British Army, but of thousands, and hundreds of thousands. "It was the first time I'd seen men killed and it left me silent, angry. Why 'go out' like that on some damned Serbian hill? What was it all about that everybody was trying to kill everybody else? Wasn't the sun shining and the world beautiful? What was this disease that had broken out like a scab over the face of the world?--Why did those particular dots have to fall? Why not the ones a yard away? What was the law of selection? Was there a law? Did every bullet have its billet? Was there a bullet for the Colonel?--For me?--No. It was impossible! But then, why those others and which of us?" He was the brother of Cosmo Hamilton (playwright-novelist) and Sir Philip Gibbs (journalist-novelist). His novels include The Persistent Lovers (adapted into a 1922 film), Soundings (1925) and Chances (1930).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War Against Germany and Italy: Mediterranean and Adjacent Areas This collection of some five hundred pictures dramatically amplifies the written record of World War II in the Mediterranean Theater and the Middle East. The images freeze in place the soldiers, the weapons, the operations, the geography, and the tenor of the moment. Major General Orlando Ward's Foreword to the first edition (see next page) describes this visual dimension as essential to fully understanding military history. The War/1 gainst Germany and Italy: Mediterranean and Adjacent Areas was one of the first volumes in the United States Anny in World War 11 series, and it has stood the test of time. In its detailed coverage, the book has also served as a useful resource for anyone seeking to illustrate this stage of the war. Although this second edition keeps all the original photographs, captions, and short narrative historical introductions to each section, we have taken sev eral steps to improve the appearance, currency, and utility of the book. We obtained new prints of the photographs to ensure their clarity, replacing the old printing negatives. We also removed outdated references and developed an appendix that provides more detailed information on the sources and cataloging numbers of the photographs to assist those who want to get their own prints. In visually documenting the World War 11 experience, this is an invaluable col lection. In publishing this upgraded edition, we hope to revive and expand the book's effectiveness in promoting an awareness of the determination, courage, and sacrifices of the American soldier in World War 11. Similar second editions of the other two pictorial volumes in the World War series are in preparation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China and the World-War After the war, the attention of the world will more and more shift to China and the Far East. The greatest potential market of the world lies there: the greatest need for industrial and economic develop ment is there. The Far East, in general, and China, in particular, have been profoundly affected by the war: they will be even more deeply inﬂuenced during the peace which is to follow. All of the great powers have financial interests in China; after the war, these interests will come into sharp competition and rivalry. In their relations with China and with each other, the nations will face two alternatives: on the one hand, a policy leading to an imperialism and oppression which eventually will endanger the dearly-bought world peace: on the other, a course of action based on inter national justice and the development of a democracy in the Far East that will be safe for the world. These alternatives in Asia are, and will be, the same as those which the world is facing in Europe today: the writer believes they should be viewed in the light of the principles for which the larger part of mankind is now fighting and that unless this is done, on the Eastern horizon will surely gather the dark clouds of another world-storm.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reformation of War Philosophy is a love of wisdom, and wisdom is the power of forming the fittest judgments from whatever premises are under consideration. Philosophy is, therefore, an evolutionary system of thought which has as its Objective the survival of the fittest thoughts. While animals progress through the struggles of body, humankind, as distinct from animals, progresses through the struggles Of mind, but with this difference: that, while in animal life every unit must struggle in order to sur vive, in human life the struggles of one great brain will, on occasion, remould an epoch. We find, therefore, that human beings may be divided into two categories-the masters (super men) and the slaves (super-monkeys); in fact, into creators and imitators. This has always been so, and is likely to remain so, for without the second there can be no opposition to the first, and opposition is the manure of progress, and progress, seemingly, is of the will of God. If the aim Of wisdom is to arrive at the fittest judgments, then, indeed, is common-sense the true philosophy of life. To do the most appropriate thing at any moment is what is generally known as a common-sense act in other words, common-sense may be defined as: thought and action adapted to Circum stances.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reasonable Direction of Force: A Plea for Investigation Before War This truth, far more than the idea that human nature cannot change and that man is by nature a fighting animal, lends strength to the instinctive morality which says we shall always have war If there is no other way of defending national rights and national liberties except by war, then, it is felt, war must be accepted. And here it may be said that the present writer accepts the first article in the basis of these pamphlets, agreeing that England, having to choose between two evils in August 1914, was justified in choosing what was perhaps the lesser evil - war. But such a choice of the lesser evil remains morally right only so long as the mind refuses to accept either alternative as really satisfactory and struggles forward to a better way.

The world must repair the ravages of war and repay its debts, and build up new institutions in place of the ones of which it has become tired. The industries, forced by war to the highest efficiency ever reached in the history of the world, will not be allowed to lapse back to the old easy-going ways. Nations will continue to compete in the arts of peace, and the competition will call for the strongest and the best prepared. The Trained Man will be in de mand; the educated man, his mind exercised and alert; able to apply himself to the new job, to the kind of thing nobody ever did before. He is the man who will reap the rewards of the after-the-war conditions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil War: Its Nature and End If the five Border Slave States (delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri) had stood firmly by the Union - the ten remaining Slave States could hardly have made a show of military resistance to the overwhelming power of the nation, even if they had all seceded, and been unanimous. The white popu lation of the whole ten may be stated, in round numbers, at about four millions, against twenty-four millions in the remaining twen ty-four States. In fact, however, but for the treasonable conduct of the secession minorities in the Border States, and especially but for the outrage perpetrated in Virginia, by means of which the secessionists usurped the control of that State, and sudden 1y threw it into a condition of war with the Federal Govern ment; it is in the highest degree probable, that neither North Car olina, Tennessee, nor Arkansas would have seceded.
