War involves, in the first instance, the defence of Great Britain. And Ireland, the heart and life of the empire; and after that, of her colonies, possessions, and commerce.

Such, in the view of a disinterested observer has been the part played by the British Empire, in the evolution of the world, and the stigma which, handed down from the past, has attached to the word Imperial disappears before so striking a record of service rendered to progress and humanity. It may be said with truth that the disruption of the British Empire would be a universal calamity, that there would be nothing to fill the void, and that the duty of maintaining the national integrity rests on higher grounds than our own interests.

Book The Fight for Canada a Naval and Military Sketch from the History of the Great Imperial War  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Fight for Canada a Naval and Military Sketch from the History of the Great Imperial War Classic Reprint written by Fellow and Tutor in Theology William Wood and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fight for Canada a Naval and Military Sketch From the History of the Great Imperial War From the very day it was fought the world-renowned Battle of the Plains has always been a subject of undying human interest; because it is one of those very few memorable landmarks which stand at the old cross-roads of history to guide us into some new great highway of the future. It is true that this battle was not by itself the cause of such momentous change; and it is also true that there were bloodier fields, in three successive years, at Ticonderoga, Minden and Ste. Foy. But those were barren battles, and never helped to bring about any decisive change in national destiny. What makes Wolfe's consummate victory immortal is, first, that it was directly based upon the British command of the sea, and hence both vitally important in itself and most far-reaching in its results; next, that it was the culminating feat of arms in one of the greatest of imperial wars; and, finally, that it will serve to mark for ever three of the mightiest epochs of modern times - the death of Greater France, the coming of age of Greater Britain, and the birth of the United States. And as it was thus at the very heart of things in the hour of triple crisis, it may be truly called the most pregnant single event in all America since Columbus discovered the New World.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Command of the Sea: And What It Means to CanadaIt has already become a commonplace to say, [that the Empire is beginning to realize how much the present war has advanced the great question of Imperial Defence. It is also beginning to dawn on the outside public that the cardinal principle involved is that every part of the Empire has an interest in the whole; and that the whole has an interest in each and every part. And there is even some general recognition of the fact that the loss of South Africa would make the problem of defence twice as hard as it is now, and would shake the very foundation of that Imperial security on which we all rely.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Empire Review and Magazine, Vol. 24: August, 1912 No oversea statesman has been received in this country with greater cordiality than Mr. Borden, Prime Minister Of the Dominion Of Canada. And I speak with knowledge, for it has been my good fortune to assist in welcoming every minister of importance who has visited the Old Country from the Dominions since the memorable conference of 1888. I say memorable, because then, for the first time, statesmen of the Homeland and statesmen from oversea gathered together in the heart of the Empire to discuss the momentous and vital question of Imperial Defence. On that occasion it was, if I remember rightly, the military defence of the Empire that chiefly occupied the attention of the Conference. On the present occasion it was mainly the question Of naval defence that brought the Canadian ministers to London. Other matters to be considered with the Home Authorities are the questions Of Imperial naturalisation and the Law of Copyright. Conversations will also take place, I understand, relating to postal, cable and steamship communication, as well as the proposal to impose preferential rates on the American shipping using the Panama Canal, a proposal fraught with much danger to the progress of Canadian trade. Nor will the subject of the relations between Canada and the West Indies be overlooked. But above and beyond all the purport Of Mr. Borden's visit is to confer with the authorities here on the all-important question of the Canadian contribution to the Navy.

Download or read book Canada and National Service Classic Reprint written by Colonel William Hamilton Merritt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canada and National Service The recognition that all was not well with the system of defence in vogue in Canada, that we lacked even the basic principle of national organisation and preparedness, did not come to me through being told something or reading something. In my case it eventuated from a distinct process of evolution, through seeing vastly different results from other conditions, and then from enquiring into what had brought them about. It is now nearly a dozen years ago that chance led me into the mountains of Switzerland, after more than a score of years' experience in the Canadian Militia. There, enquiry into the matter of shooting led to an enfolding of enough of the wonder of a true democracy of defence thoroughly to arouse my interest. This was the beginning of a general investigation, at every opportunity, of the Military systems pertaining to other countries, and of an examination into the conditions that prevailed in Canada in our past history. By contrast the hopelessness of our existing conditions was all too apparent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
