Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Incident of War Order of the Kaiser There is no such thing as international law, as that term is frequently used. That may seem a hard saying, but it is a fact which becomes apparent to belligerents and neutrals when war is in progress. Nothing contributes more powerfully to the recognition of that truth than the varying claims and objections which are raised whenever a blockade is declared. The late Lord Salisbury, in a speech on the proposal to establish an International Court of Arbitration, he being at the time Prime Minister of England, remarked that international law has no existence in the sense in which the term 'law is usually understood. It depends generally upon the, prejudices of writers of textbooks. It can be enforced by no tribunal, and, therefore, to apply to it the phrase 'law, ' is to some extent misleading. Objections have also been raised to the word international. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Impressions of the Kaiser The fifth year Of the Great War reveals the enor mity, but it does not yet disclose the dénouement, of this crime; which has filled with grief and smit ten with poverty tens Of millions of homes, swept from the earth in the Vigor of youth the flower of the manhood of several great nations, and leaves vast spaces scorched and blasted by the fires of devastation to be again rendered habitable by the labors Of Old men, cripples, and half-famished chil dren. With such a scene spread out before the eyes of the civilized world, vituperation and invective are only signs Of impotence. We cannot repair this calamity by denunciation. We cannot prevent its recurrence without suppressing its cause. The first necessity is to perceive wherein is to be found the root Of this evil.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kaiser's War Six of these chapters are republished from the English Review, in certain cases enlarged. On their appearance I was charged by some of my Liberal friends with Germanophobia. I hope this is not so. Up to the outbreak of the war I was in correspondence with good "pals" of mine in Germany; I have known many happy days there, I admire numbers of German things which I do not find in this country, not the least of which is a factual honesty of thought [Germans have been consistently honest in their attitude, our professional politicians have not]; as I have loved so also I have learnt there. In many ways the German attitude towards life is more pleasant than ours, certainly more intellectually stimulating.

And the Lord said to Satan: Where dost thou get thy proof?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from He Conquered the Kaiser It was, moreover, his knowledge Of the motives of men and of monarchs that left him quite undismayed when the launch with its dead had rushed past him up-stream. He saw at once that the man who handled the tiller was an emissary of the Prince of Sylvania, and that he would not dare to disclose his plight to the police. He knew very well that it would be better for him to return and ask the aid of the man whose life he had sought than to have any dealings with the slow and exacting Officials of Scotland Yard. It was this that made Mr Jones SO confident when he said to Strong: He will come back. The accident of Strong's introduction to the incident was, of course, annoying; but Mr Jones felt quite sure of his silence, and saw no need for disclosing the cherished secret of his identity. Here, however, he made a miscalculation, for Mr Montgomery Jones' secret was quite well known to Strong. It was this knowledge, indeed, which to some extent had made the flirtation with Miss Diana Montgomery Jones so inexpressibly sweet. It is not every day that one can dally with a princess in disguise. For this strange young man possessed a certain element of romance, which, if it is present in men of action, produces great results. And romance is after all only imagination, which John Oliver Hobbes said she had found more keenly developed in men of affairs than in poets. And Strong, though at that time no one ever dreamed it, was essentially a man of affairs. He was for the time a dreamer-a lazy troubadour waiting to be stung into action by necessity; and when the sting that produces action comes to the man of imagination the world is apt to know of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mugging the Kaiser and His Pals: War! Why Not? To Safeguard American Capital, Industry, and the Right to Labor But, ascending from this-yawning hollow, shining above the horizon of this universal pestilence, there looms up the energetic, inextinguishable light of Democracy that radiates the path of moral rectitude, informing us that we can firmly and confidently proclaim that the breath of that divinely planted aspiration - the passion for freedom - will prove to be mightier than all the brutally, materialistic strength, and all the prodigious armaments which seem to have laid the world low. With the dawning of Democracy, great, stirring human emotions will vitalize every fibre of her glittering fabric, as the souls of men, women, and children are liber ated from the dungeons of warfare's greed in which they have been heartlessly incarcerated by despicable autocracy, shocking their sensibili ties and marbleizing their spiritual faculties.

This is not because he has any reason to be ashamed of his name, or wants to give the impression that he is somebody of very great impor tance. His reason is simply that his intimate relations with people in Germany would make it inconvenient for them and for him were he to be known as the author of this pen-portrait of the Real Kaiser.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Guest of the Kaiser: The Plain Story of a Lucky Soldier Upon my return to Canada from the prison camp in Germany, I was repeatedly urged by my friends to enter the field as a lecturer to inform the ones who were forced to stay "back home" of conditions as they existed at the Front, and behind the lines in Germany. Previous to the war I had never made a public speech in my life. I was only a boy, just eighteen, and my object in life seemed to be to enter into as many athletic sports as possible. Therefore, when it was first suggested that I become a lecturer, I was terrified at the prospect and would much rather have gone "Over the Top" in an attack than face an audience. I did not make myself into a lecturer; I was just "wished" on to the public platform. My first month on tour was one continual round of terror and stage-fright. How I survived, or what I said in my lectures, I do not know. The authorities, however, seemed to be pleased with my efforts and soon I was placed on the staff of the Recruiting Committee for Ontario.

Then came an order that it be at once suppressed. The simple German rubbed his eyes and scratched his ears! The millions who had not seen it now rushed to buy a Copy; and, of course I did the same - happening to be just then in Bavaria.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Behind the Scenes With the Kaiser (1888-1922), Vol. 2: The True Story of the Kaiser as He Lived, Loved, Played and Warred If the tour or outing on which they were about to enter had been under consideration for some time, a printed itinerary was furnished to the chief of each department, but quite frequently no one was able to learn anything beyond the hour of departure. The Kaiser, you know, addressed his attendants only in monosyllables, and did not even take the trouble to speak distinctly. To ask repetition of a sentence, or to put any question whatever, would have been an unheard-of breach of etiquette, so nothing remained to do but to take chances and work ahead in the dark, the more so, as the adjutants often knew no more of his Majesty's intentions than the small stableboys who went with every imperial party to assist at tennis. Especial secrecy was observed if the destination was some town or fortress in the far west or east of the Empire, where, after a night of travel, the war-lord intended to mount at five or six o'clock in the morning, and, attended by trumpeters and a formidable suite, ride through the streets alarming the garrison.

More fortunate than the great British soldier who spent his veteran days in warning his countrymen of the ordeal to come, Madame Adam, now in her eightyzfirst year, may yet hope to see the banners of the Allies crowned with vic tory, the black wreaths on the statue of Strasburg in the Place de la Concorde changed to garlands of rejoicing.
