Download or read book America and the Great War for Humanity and Freedom Classic Reprint written by Willis Fletcher Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America and the Great War for Humanity and Freedom I shall also attempt to Show how crucial was the situation in Europe at the psychological moment of our declara tion of war, and how truly at that time the fate of humanity seemed to be hanging upon our decision and our action; and how momentous for ourselves and for others was the action of our government in accepting the hostile challenge of the German Empire. Concerning the magnitude of the theme there can be no question. The war which was begun by the Teutonic powers in the summer of 1914 brought the world face to face with what is probably the greatest crisis in its whole history. We might compare it with the Punic wars, which decided whether Rome or Carthage should rule the Medi terranean and its shores; with the Greek and Persian wars, which determined whether European or Asiatic civilization should be dominant; with the Fall of Rome; with the Mohammedan conquests and the Crusades; with the Napo leonio wars. But not one of these approximated the physical magnitude of this War of the Nations, or its moral and Spiritual importance to the future of the whole human race. For the first time in our history, all the highest material and intellectual resources of civilization are arrayed in an effort to subvert and to destroy the moral and spiritual fruits of human progress. The drunken helot of Sparta is invested with all the arts of Athens. To such a con ict are we called, to declare, as truly as in 1776, that states and peoples have a right to independent government of their own choice; and to see to it, as truly as in 1863, that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America at War The long moral struggle is over. The extremists have prevailed in Germany, while in America righteous ness has become another name for wrath. All the just, righteous, and kindly endeavors of our government to main tain the code of international rights and human safeguards have been made the object of scorn, and the instruments by which royal arrogance sought to fulfill its schemes. Our record is clean. We have leaned backward to maintain the cause of peace. In the pursuit of this cause we have been called cowards and selfish people. So did we yearn for peace, that the world mistook this longing for selfishness, and we ourselves began to doubt and grow a little discouraged and ashamed.

Download or read book The Right Or the Wrong of the American War written by UNKNOWN. AUTHOR and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Right, or the Wrong, of the American War: A Letter to an English Friend New York, July, 1863. Sir - -, K. C. B. Mt Dear Friend: - ... You think that our government cannot put down the rebellion; and that even if it could, it would be rendering a questionable service to the world, as the American people would then soon become too powerful for the safety of other nations. On both these grounds, you wish to see the war brought to an end by the acknowledgment of the Confederacy as an independent nation. I will not discuss your second reason at any length. You do not doubt that the more powerful any nation should become the better for the world it would be, provided its councils were guided by justice and enlightened views of policy. Without and with such guidance, then, let us see how this country would stand towards foreign nations. Without justice and integrity, both among its citizens generally and in its councils, this Republic could not last long, but must soon be self-destroyed. This is an axiom in the judgment of our best men. If thus self-destroyed - a prey to internal dissension, disorder, and violence - this country would be a beacon to teach other nations the supreme importance of private and public virtue. But let the principles of our holy religion be in the ascendant, and our country would be the means only of good to the world, sharing with the people of other lands the pursuits of commerce and science and the blessings of Christianity. On either supposition, this country would not be an object of fear. But if there is danger to be apprehended, it must spring from the division and not from the union of these states.
