Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Austria-Hungary, Vol. 2 To gain some grip of these matters a short historical introduction is undoubtedly necessary. I do not think, however, that history should always begin at the beginning, though many people have a passion for delving into the past and groping after the roots of a subject, which often prove, when unearthed, to be exceedingly dry. The same tendency may be observed in writers Of biography, who are rarely content to begin with the man or woman whose life they are undertaking, or even with their parents, but frequently go back through many centuries, dwelling at dreary length upon tedious details which occupy half the book before the pith and core of the matter is reached. Hence in this very cursory sketch of the Dual Monarchy only so much as is essential to give colour and life to the whole book in all its aspects Shall be dealt with.

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret Treaties of Austria-Hungary, 1879-1914, Vol. 2 This second volume of the Secret Treaties of Austria-Hungary offers to the English reading public the story of the negotiations of the five successive treaties of the Triple Alliance, and corresponds in the main to the second half of Professor Pribram's first German volume. In addition it contains in the appendices three hitherto unprinted agreements between Austria and Russia, which Professor Pribram has copied from the Vienna archives, namely the convention of Schonbrunn of 1873, the pact of Reichstadt of 1876, and the treaty of Budapest of 1877. The existence of these agreements has long been known, and the texts were consulted by the Hungarian writer, Wertheimer, in his biography of Count Andrassy, but they are now made public for the first time. It has also seemed worth while, in a volume like this devoted to the history of the treaties of the Triple Alliance, to reproduce for convenience in reference and comparison some of the chief and not commonly accessible documents of the great rival league, the Dual Alliance between France and Russia. These were first given out to the world by the French Government in a Yellow Book after the fall of the Russian Empire, one of the signatories. Likewise the recently published exchanges of notes between the French and Italian governments in 1900 and in 1902 are relevant to the subject of the Triple Alliance, especially in connection with the third treaty, the one concluded in 1902. The essential passages of this correspondence are therefore reproduced here. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Austria-Hungary IT is sometimes said that Englishmen as a rule know comparatively little of foreign countries and of probably no other foreign country of the same importance - pre senting so many points of interest to us, or having so many claims on our attention, do we actually know so little as of Austria of the present day. When we think of it, it is rather of the Austria of the past than of the present - the Austria of before 1848 or 1866 - the absolute monarchy the oppressor of nationalities the suppressor of free institutions, and of nearly every form of liberty among its people; the upholder of harassing restrictions against trade, commerce, and industry and in fine so conservative of everything old and established, and so little given to change, as to merit the designation of the China of Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace Handbooks, Vol. 2: Austria-Hungary, Part II The first home of the Slavs, according to the best modern opinion, lay between the Vistula and the Dnieper. From this region in the middle of the sixth century a.d, some Croats began to emigrate to the country, or the neighbour hood of the country, which now takes its name from them. They were a tribe belonging to the same stock as the Serbs, who at some early date broke away from them and settled to the east of the River Urbas. According to the story, the peril in which Constantinople was placed by the attacks of the Avars led the Emperor H-eraclius, in the years between 634 and 638, to encourage a migration of Croats on a much larger scale, in the belief that they would afford defence to an Empire which could no longer defend itself. The precise locality occupied by the Croats remains, however, a contested problem. The Magyar contention is that it corresponded to the Bosnia and the Herzegovina of to-day, and that the Magyars at their first coming occupied the region between the Drave and the Save, which we now call croatia-slavonia.1 The Croa tian view is that the Croats held approximately the region between the Adriatic, the Drave, the Timok, and the Drina. They were under the tutelage first of the Eastern, then of the Western, Empire; until, in 914, Tomislav, their chief, asserted his virtual indepen dence by taking the title of king.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Austria-Hungary: The Polyglot Empire Side by side with such matter as tends to elucidate this paramount object, there also appears information in the body of this book which may interest the reader for its own sake. A good deal of it rests on the personal im pressions of the writer. Some readers may like the book the better for that. One more remark. I think I may honestly claim for myself to be actuated by no conscious bias in dealing with political, social and racial questions discussed here. Cer tainly none has swayed my judgment in looking towards ultimate ends. The political reforms urgently called for, both in Hungary and Austria, to bring those two coun tries abreast of the times, abreast of the West, are not subject to opinion; they are demanded by the facts them selves. Neither has my sincere liking for and sympathy with the people of austria-hungary blinded me to their serious failings; failings, however, which, nearly all of them, do more harm to themselves than to others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Whirlpool of Europe: Austria-Hungary and the Habsburgs No attempt has been made, either in text or illustra tions, to do justice to the wonderful scenery which is the framework of this picture of national and political evo lation. To do so would involve not one but several volumes, and the present work is merely an outline which the reader may fill in at his leisure by reference to more detailed studies. The authors feel that the historical sketch may alarm some readers by its scope, but it was found impossible to give a true impression of modern Austria and Hungary without tracing their connection with the extinct Holy Roman Empire and the modern German one, or without following, from its earliest stages, the career of the House of Habsburg. The key to the situa tion lies to a great extent in the historical evolution of the various parts of the Dual Monarchy and in their relations to the ruling house.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Austria-Hungary and the War Back of the activities Of Russian diplomacy in the Balkan Peninsula is her legitimate desire to se cure the opening Of the straits Of Constantinople, closed to her by treaties, and thus to obtain a free outlet from the Black Sea for her commerce and her crops, and the unhampered passage Of her fleet to the Mediterranean. In the pursuit Of these Oh jects the statecraft Of St. Petersburg has sought to control the Balkan states and to prevent any of them, especially a vigorous and progressive Bul garia, from occupying Constantinople, the key to the Dardanelles. In her endeavors to establish and maintain such a hegemony in Balkan affairs, Russia inevitably has menaced the vital commercial inter ests Of austria-hungary.

Having studied it both in its theory and its practice, with an interest proportioned to its singularity, during a residence in the country for several months, at a period when the Diet was sitting, I regret that it has been impossible for me, in a work like the present, to render a full and just account of institutions so peculiar both in their structure and their bearings.
