Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kaiser and His Barbarians: An Authoritative Record of the Crimes Committed by the Germans in France and Belgium in the Name of War, Together With the Official Reports of the Commission of Enquiry Appointed by King Albert of Belgium The Chief of the Mission made a statement to the representatives of the London Press in reference to the atrocities the Germans have committed upon a pacific and neutral people. Although this statement was made orally in -quite an unceremonious way to the Pressmen, every word carried with it the speaker's genuine and absolute horror and his deep sorrow and pity for his brutally-used people. It was a tale of terror, which should awaken the indignant pity of all men and women who are not of the Kaiser's Opinion that justice and honour are dead and that brute force and sheer savagery should reign in their stead.

I have seen ruined France - such of it as is ruined - and have seen on the Somme the mole-work that is demanded of the foot-slogger, and, probably because the mole can see what is going on below ground better than he who passes beneath the rose and grey skies of a French spring, I am more sure than Mr. Loti that the grass is already moving that shall cover the graveyards and the rusty heaps of recovered provinces.

Book The Barbarian Invasions of Italy  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Barbarian Invasions of Italy Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Pasquale Villari and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Barbarian Invasions of Italy, Vol. 1 The purpose that impelled me to write this book is a very modest one, but extremely difficult to fulfil. Whether I have succeeded or failed the reader must decide. But I should like to explain what induced me to make the attempt. It is an undeniable fact that since the kingdom of Italy has been established we have made much progress in historical research. This is proved by the great number of Historical Archives published in every part of the country; by the Commissions and Societies for the study of Italian history which have sprung into existence on all sides; by the enormous mass of documents daily brought to light; by the notable advance made in paleography, diplomatics, classic and neo-Latin philology, the history of jurisprudence, and generally in historic method and research. Nevertheless books supplying narratives of past events in a simple, easy, readable style, such as abounded formerly in Italy, and served as models to other countries, are becoming increasingly scarce here.

Book Confessions of a Barbarian  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Confessions of a Barbarian Classic Reprint written by George Sylvester Viereck and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Confessions of a Barbarian This book reveals America to herself by interpreting Europe. I stand in symbolic relation, so to speak, to both hemispheres. My twofold racial consciousness serving as a fulcrum, I am enabled to pry two worlds - Archimedes aspired to lift but one - out of the furrow of their mutual misconception. I have seen the soul of the subtle siren Europe. I have chronicled facts from her unwritten history, from the secret pages of diplomatic portfolios. From her have I also learned verities greater than facts. I may speak ex cathedra: infallibility I claim not. I have emulated not the labored minuteness of old school painters who, numbering each hair of the head, make themselves rivals of God, but the thumbnail sketches of Whistler and the chromatic riots of Boecklin. My book, though published serially in William Marion Reedy's brave weekly. The Mirror, is journalism only in the sense in which that term may also be applied to the Reisebilder of Heine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from When I Was a Boy in Belgium The author of this book became known to us through the columns of a newspaper, which published an interview with Mr. Jonckheere soon after his arrival in this country. The graphic account he had given of Belgian refugees flocking out of Antwerp led us to believe that he was one who could well and profitably tell our boys and girls how those of their own age live in a land that has become the center of so great interest. Mr. Jonckheere proved to be a man of unusual culture, especially well-read, and an excellent linguist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Barbarian and Noble  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Barbarian and Noble Classic Reprint written by Marion Florence Lansing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Barbarian and Noble History has no period which makes a more vivid appeal to the young reader than the thousand years which we call the Middle Ages. The mediaeval world is just such a world as he would like to live in, where knights ride off on cru sades, and kings wander out from their palaces in disguise, where heroes sail away to explore unknown seas, and gay cavaliers sally forth to tournament and joust. It requires no effort to interest boys and girls in this part of history. They turn to it with the enthusiasm with which they seize fairy tales and legends of chivalry and romance, and find in its reality a satisfying response to the desire for a true story. The child's interest being assured, the problem is to make this interest of use in the process of his education. The purpose of this series is to relate this fascinating and heroic past to the present by telling the stories from the point of view of the contribution of the Middle Ages to the world of to-day. The heroes gain a new importance and the stories a new meaning by this treatment. Who the mediaeval builders were may be seen by the titles of the following books which make up the series Bar barian and Noble, Patriots and Tyrants, Sea Kings and Explorers, Kings and Common Folk, Cavalier and Courtier, Craftsman and Artist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Germans in Belgium: Experiences of a Neutral IN the following pages I have adopted the form of a little record of travel. Certain facts I witnessed justify the conclusions I have drawn. At the close of my sojourn in Belgium the wholesale shootings and destruo tion that had taken place still caused legitimate amaze ment, for the German theories had not as yet been revealed. Thus in my narrative I may seem to insist upon the almost accidental character of these misdeeds. At the beginning of the month of October I should have had no right to believe in a regular system of devastation and extermination.
