Book excerpt: Excerpt from Causes and Consequences of the War of 1914 As this book goes to the press, Belgium, the importance of whose existence as a factor in the maintenance of European peace can not be overestimated, is in the possession of Germany. If this occupation is continued, it means that forty miles instead of three hundred and forty miles will separate Germany from England, and that the little island will, while that condition continues, be in danger of being over-run by the invading forces of her Teuton neighbor. England is not adapted to the permanent maintenance of a large body of regular troops. Such a burden would impose an impossible drain upon her industrial life. She has regarded distance from her most powerful continental rival as one of two indispensable attributes of safety; her fleet was the other.- No treaty with Belgium or France had to be invoked to spur Britain on to war when the littoral of the English Channel was menaced by German occupation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War in Europe: Its Causes and Results No excuse will be offered for the smallness of this book in comparison with the vastness of its subject. The author has felt a personal need of some knowledge of those conditions of Europe which bear upon the origin of the Great War of 1914. Thence it was a short road to the thought that other Americans might be interested in a brief but systematic statement of the resources, aims, and difficulties of the European powers; the manner in which they became involved in the war; and the probable results of the struggle to Amer ica and to the rest of the world.

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.

I have hoped to contribute something towards it by trying to eliminate worn-out dynastic traditions, old diplomatic formulae for so long accepted as international currency, the untruths and half truths of historical law, vague ideas about races and nationalities, inexact and deceptive catchwords, and to replace them by the solid conception, after the manner of Bentham, of a utilitarian policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wars and Treaties, 1815 to 1914 The causes are epitomized in the fewest possible words and the occasion is separated from the cause. Causes of wars are very seldom remembered and are not very easily discovered in the perusal of histories. The occasion is sometimes mistaken for the cause, whereas it may often be merely a pretext. The occasion of a war has not in frequently been a comparatively trivial incident, whereas the cause can be traced to the gradual development of friction for which divergence of policies or conflict of am bitions may have been responsible. The trivial incident, or even an incident of a more serious nature, may pass off without fatal consequences if no friction exists between the nations and there is a general atmosphere of amicable understanding. Where, on the contrary, relations are strained it requires but a very small spark to light up a conflagration. It is important therefore to detach the occasion from the cause.

Download or read book The Great War written by Theodore Dehon Jervey and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Download or read book International War Its Causes and Its Cure Classic Reprint written by Oscar Terry Crosby and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-14 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from International War Its Causes and Its Cure The views expressed in this volume first appeared in a pamphlet published in 1911. The general principles concerning the possibility of eliminating international war are deducible from the 8000 years of human history which was available to us before the fatal events of 1914. A student addressing himself to the subject before that date might indeed fail to arrive at sound conclusions, but his failure would not be due to lack of material. It would have been possible, and perhaps from the point of View of current interest desirable, to illustrate the various doctrines presented by citing the incidents of the Great War. On the other hand, very recent happenings involving great passions are always the subject of hottest controversy, and, therefore, scarcely suitable for use in a work which strives, with what ever success, to urge its doctrines on grounds which may be accepted or rejected by readers independently of their nationality.
