Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reflections on War and Death Even science has lost her dispassionate impartiality. Her deeply embittered vo taries are intent upon seizing her weapons to do their share in the battle against the enemy. The anthropologist has to de clare his opponent inferior and degenerate, the psychiatrist must diagnose him as men tally deranged. Yet it is probable that we are affected out of all proportion by the evils of these times and have no right to compare them with the evils of other times through which we have not lived.

This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reflections on the Art of War The numerous favourable reviews of the first edition of this book, and the encouraging notice that has been taken of it by officers whose opinions carry weight, have induced me to venture upon a new and greatly enlarged edition which, with its detailed index, will, I trust, be found useful to officers studying the art of war, and to all who require a work of reference to incidents connected with the great battles of ancient and modern times, and with the generals - good and bad - who have left their names in history. By dwelling on the characteristics of many of the greatest commanders of all ages, I have endeavoured to make the first chapter an interesting introduction to the study of war. A certain familiarity with the characters of those who have been leaders of men in battle is absolutely essential to the right understanding of military operations. This preliminary study will assist and fortify the reader, because the acts and sayings of the men who have actually made history are everywhere brought forward by me as credible evidence in support of what I urge as sound teaching of the art of war.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War: Impressions and Reflections, Being Thoughts on Its Religious Aspects At different stages of the War this appeal has been brought home to us in special ways. First, there was the time of uncertainty, when it seemed possible that England would stand aloof from/the conflict and remain neutral, that she would refuse to recognise her obligations to her friends and in formal allies. In the autumn came the harvest, and with it a deepened sense of thankfulness, not only for the bounteous harvest given to us, but also for the security afforded us for the future, by our continued command of the sea.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thoughts on the War In the Times on August 6th, the others in the Literary Supplement. I have to thank the proprietors of the Times for allowing me to reprint them. They are reprinted just as they were first published except for a few corrections. Some objec tion has been made by correspondents to the article called The Illusions of War, on the ground that it is dispiriting and mawkish. I wrote it as a sermon for myself and my own more violent feelings. Chris tianity tells us to love our enemies. I cannot pretend that I have succeeded in doing so but that article and passages in the other articles are attempts to attain to a state of mind in which the Christian command shall not seem a foolish impossibility; and they are not, I think, inconsistent with a belief that we are fighting for a good cause.

This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Historical Reflections Relating to the War: Address I have thought that it would be appropriate at the present meeting of the Women's Canadian Historical Society of Ottawa, to present some historical reflections which may be of value in enabling us to form a more just conception of the importance of the struggle in which we are engaged, and the true meaning of it from the standpoint of the Canadian citizen. Nothing that I will say, in so far as the facts are concerned, will be beyond the knowledge of any well-read school-boy. The knowledge of very important facts, however, frequently lies dormant. We do 'not always apply to the affairs of life the knowledge which is held in suspension in our memories. What I propose to do is to apply some of our common historical knowledge to the condition of affairs which exists in the world to-day.

Download or read book Standing by War Time Reflections in France and Flanders Classic Reprint written by Robert Keable and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Standing by War-Time Reflections in France and Flanders Moreover, of course, this is to set aside the fact that no one, even in the regular Army itself, knew what this war would be like. It is one thing to belong to a regular army whether in peace Or in War, and quite another to be a unit in a nation mobilised from top to bottom all but irrespective even of sex. Besides, no living Englishman had experienced a Western European War unless as an isolated volunteer in 1870, and a soldier's life in a foreign civilised country was as strange as combat with highly trained conscript armies in the field itself. All this is upon the surface, but it might be supposed that the ground of such an experience had been fairly well covered by now. Our authors have revealed to us the making Of Kitchener's Army -it sounds quite far away now; every phase of life in the trenches, on the sea, and in the air even the experiences of and chaplains, the latter everywhere. I might well have asked myself where I came in. In fact, however, this book has been written without the posing of such a question at all.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Over Here and Over There: A Soldier's Thoughts of Home and War In publishing this book I have no intention whatsoever to offer a work of great literary value. As such it would undoubtedly be a failure, because, being of a non-english-speak ing race, and only having been in this country a comparatively Short time before going over to France, I cannot claim a mastery of the English language. The incidents described in this book are all based upon actual facts, while the poetry was composed on the impulse of the moment. It has merely been my intention to express the spirit which led me to America and thence with Pershing's Expeditionary Forces to France. Not only American citizens of. Foreign birth, but also those who had the good fortune of being born and raised in this country and who claim to have reached the highest stand ard of Americanism, should find inspiration and encouragement in these lines.

This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War and America This book discusses the essential factors and issues in the European war and their meaning and import for America. The hour for an im personal account of the war has certainly not yet come, and may not come for a long while. What our time can contribute is the reflection of the great war in the minds of individuals. A story of memories and impressions, of fears and hopes, has to-day more inner truth than any history of the struggle apparently written with an historian 's coolness. This diary, therefore, views the events as they unfold themselves from week to week, from the angle of personal experiences.

Of the Service of Supply I know little, having never really visited the rear zone. Some matters of interest have not been touched on for reasons of discretion.
