Book excerpt: Excerpt from The European War: August to March During the ten years from 1890 to 1900, this com mercial and industrial expansion went on with ever increasing rapidity, while during this time several causes for friction arose between Germany and Great Britain and Germany embarked on the crowning sin of her career, to British eyes, the creation of a great navy. Up to the launching of the Dreadnought by Great Britain, Germany's efforts at creating a navy able to cope with hers were not remarkably successful, owing to the great advance in constructed ships Great Britain possessed. But the success of this dreadnought type of battle ship, which practically sent all ships constructed be fore it to the junk heap, was Germany's opportunity which she improved, starting in on a well reasoned plan of construction that in a very few years raised her navy to the second strongest in the world, and bade fair in a few years-more to create a fleet fully as strong as that of Great Britain. This latter power did not view this proceeding on Germany's part with equanimity. She has herself for many years added to her fleet on the principle of keeping always equal in strength to the two strongest fleets which could be opposed to it. Germany's program of construction obliged Great Britain to strain every financial nerve to maintain the established proportion; So great was this strain that on one occasion she proposed to Germany that the construction of warships in the future be limited. She was Willing to pledge herself to only build five ships to each three built by Germany. Somehow or other the merits of this proposition did not appear clear to Germany, so the race in construction continued and the British middle classes, who largely had to pay the cost of the British construction, and whom Germany was also injuring by taking their customers from them in the world's markets in fair and open competition, did not have their love for Germany increased.

Download or read book The Great Class War 1914 1918 written by Jacques R. Pauwels and published by James Lorimer & Company. This book was released on 2016-04-06 with total page 758 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historian Jacques Pauwels applies a critical, revisionist lens to the First World War, offering readers a fresh interpretation that challenges mainstream thinking. As Pauwels sees it, war offered benefits to everyone, across class and national borders. For European statesmen, a large-scale war could give their countries new colonial territories, important to growing capitalist economies. For the wealthy and ruling classes, war served as an antidote to social revolution, encouraging workers to exchange socialism's focus on international solidarity for nationalism's intense militarism. And for the working classes themselves, war provided an outlet for years of systemic militarization -- quite simply, they were hardwired to pick up arms, and to do so eagerly. To Pauwels, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in June 1914 -- traditionally upheld by historians as the spark that lit the powder keg -- was not a sufficient cause for war but rather a pretext seized upon by European powers to unleash the kind of war they had desired. But what Europe's elite did not expect or predict was some of the war's outcomes: social revolution and Communist Party rule in Russia, plus a wave of political and social democratic reforms in Western Europe that would have far-reaching consequences. Reflecting his broad research in the voluminous recent literature about the First World War by historians in the leading countries involved in the conflict, Jacques Pauwels has produced an account that challenges readers to rethink their understanding of this key event of twentieth century world history.

Download or read book The German Failure in Belgium August 1914 written by Dennis Showalter and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If wars were wagered on like pro sports or horse races, the Germany military in August 1914 would have been a clear front-runner, with a century-long record of impressive victories and a general staff the envy of its rivals. Germany's overall failure in the first year of World War I was surprising and remains a frequent subject of analysis, mostly focused on deficiencies in strategy and policy. But there were institutional weaknesses as well. This book examines the structural failures that frustrated the Germans in the war's crucial initial campaign, the invasion of Belgium. Too much routine in planning, command and execution led to groupthink, inflexibility and to an overconfident belief that nothing could go too terribly wrong. As a result, decisive operation became dicey, with consequences that Germany's military could not overcome in four long years.
