Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from European Days and Ways Of course, there are many Books of Travel, and yet there seems room for this one more. In 1899 I went abroad, with my wife, son, and daughter. We landed at Naples, and traveled thence through Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, England, and Scotland. Before leaving home, after much inquiry and searching many libraries, I could find no single book covering our entire proposed route and these several countries well, and have found none since giving things as we saw them. Moreover, my son had already been over twice, and so enabled us to see, I think, at least twice as much as Americans usually see, and to see things twice as well. Hence this volume, which really seems needed by Americans going abroad, and by others fond of European travel by proxy. It is not a Guide-book, nor a "Sentimental Journey," but a common-sense account of Europe as it is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cross Currents in Europe to-Day The study of European affairs is no academic exercise for Americans; it runs to the roots of our national destiny. Our fate is not fashioned by domestic policies alone. Indeed, no wise domestic policies can be framed without reference to the course of world events. There has been no general war in Europe for more than two hundred years in which America has not taken part. As English colonies we participated in the War of the Spanish Succession at the opening of the eighteenth century; as an independent nation we shared in the responsibilities of the World War at the beginning of the twentieth century. Every concept of civic duty in war and peace, every dream of national grandeur has rested and must rest at bottom upon some foundation of international policy. True as this was in 1914, it is still more true today. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Present Day Europe written by T. Lothrop Stoddard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Present-Day Europe: Its National States of Mind This book resolved itself from the first into a series of choices. The problem was, how to portray within the limits of a single volume the war psychology of the various European nations. That problem was not an easy one. The portrayal of national states of mind requires treatment differing radically from that employed in a narrative of events. The only satisfactory method of portraying thought and emotion is the use of direct evidence - the testimony of the people themselves. This explains the numerous direct quotations which will be found in the succeeding pages. No words of a foreign observer could mirror the spirit of warring Europe as do the voices of its sons and daughters crying out from a full heart in the very hour of trial. The evidence adduced has been of the most contemporary and popular character. Speeches, press-comment, pamphlets, brochures - the words of and for the moment: these best bespeak the stirrings of the national soul. Official utterances, carefully weighed and craftily spoken as they are, are never quoted save when they faithfully represent popular feeling or when they produce a marked effect upon public opinion. Lastly, natives alone are permitted upon the witness stand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ninety Days Worth of Europe There has been no period till now when we have had a smooth enough sea for me to write even thus ill. But really our detail has been little. It is just possible that a schooner may have announced that she spoke as Wednesday night. If she arrives at Boston, it will not be that she has not been sent to a hotter place by everybody who has alluded to her in our party (excepting me, who sympathize with her skip per, and am afraid I should have done just what he did). The skipper thought he was going to be run down, and fired two guns. This he should never have done, unless he were in distress; but, as he did it, gallant Capt. Leitch in all that stiff gale lay by, and sent a boat on board him, only to learn that his distress rose from his fears that he did not see him. So, as far as I can learn, he got quite distinctly con demned for his pains; and we proceeded again to our business of getting to Europe. By rigid con tinuance in it, we were able to take a pilot this morn ing: a very pretty and exciting sight, two pilot schooners vying for our custom, and the successful Bluenose having to pull a mile in his fine little dory over such waves as you never saw. By the time he reached us, his nose was as red as a peach blow. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The views of citizens of this country are surprisingly coloured by the daily press, the sensational tendency Of which destroys dispassionate judgment. To rectify this, readers of all ages should be trained to form considered estimates from assembled facts, rather than to swallow Opinion ready-made. To the consummation of such an aim I have tried to make a contribution by providing some backcloth of information against which may be visualized the drama of these troubled times.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from England, Germany and Europe Never has there been so sudden a change in the complexion Of a nation as that which took place among us during the first days of August. One week we saw nothing but confusion, irresolution, pro crastination; party spirit enraged to an unknown degree the very foundations of the State undermined, the House of Commons, which is the mainspring in our institutions lamed, civil war imminent. For the first time within the memory of man the authority Of Parliament was Openly challenged by men in arms. The discipline of the Army had become a question of party politics and men threatened to throw into the cauldron the Crown itself. Look where one would there was no escape, no solution of the unprecedented entanglement. A few days passed and the voice of faction was dead the two Houses of Parliament'at harmony within and united with each other showed themselves to be representatives of a united nation, and for the first time since the death of Pitt we heard from the Treasury Bench in clarion tones the authentic voice of England.
