Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Boy Allies in the Balkan Campaign, or the Struggle to Save a Nation "And how do you feel now, Mr. Stubbs?" Hal Paine took his eyes from the distance ahead long enough to gaze toward that part of the military aeroplane in which three other figures were seated. It might rather be said, however, that two of the others were seated, for the third figure was huddled up in a little ball, now and then emitting feeble sounds. In response to Hal's question, this huddled figure straightened itself up long enough to make reply. "I feel sick," came the answer in a low voice. "How long before we can get back to earth, so that I may die peacefully?" "Oh, I guess you won't die, Mr. Stubbs," said Hal, chuckling a bit to himself. He turned his eyes ahead again and gave his entire attention to guiding the swiftly flying craft. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The first streak of dawn had appeared in the east but a few moments before and gradually now it was growing light. High in the air, it was very chilly and those in the aeroplane had drawn their coats closely about them. "Where do you suppose we are now, Hal?" This speaker was another of the passengers in the car, Chester Crawford, chum and bosom companion of Hal.

Download or read book The First World War A Marxist Analysis of the Great Slaughter written by Alan Woods and published by Wellred Books. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 28 June 1914, two pistol shots shattered the peace of a sunny afternoon in Sarajevo. Those shots reverberated around Europe and shattered the peace of the whole world. This was the beginning of the Great Slaughter. Could it have been avoided? Alan Woods uses the method of Marxism to answer this question. He explains that, actually, whilst individuals play an important role in history, to explain events such as wars, one must look at deeper causes. As well as dealing with the origin of the war, Woods traces the conflict through its development, looking at the role of all the major actors, and their aims. He shows how in the midst of the despair of the trenches and the home front, a new consciousness was formed. He also makes the case that it was the German Revolution that brought the war to an end, and how a revolutionary wave swept across Europe. The book also looks at the Treaty of Versailles and how the victorious powers imposed the deal, not just on Germany, but the rest of Europe and the Middle East. Given the amount of nationalistic mystification from all sides about the First World War, a history of the subject from the standpoint of the world working class is essential and it is provided by this book.
