Book The Real Kaiser  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Real Kaiser Classic Reprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Real Kaiser The personality of the Kaiser is so many sided that his true psychology is very difficult to discover by the ordinary newspaper reader, who, for twenty years, has taken at face value every one of his numerous speeches without remembering the one that preceded it. Since the war broke out, extracts from these speeches have been presented to the public, with the effect of entirely bewildering the large class who have intelligence, but have no specialized knowledge of Germany and her ruler. To them, modern Germany, with her dreams of world-domination, as it is now made known, is an entire contradiction of all their preconceived views of the peaceful domestic nature of the German people, and the Kaiser is a dozen different men in one body. Yet the careful student of things and persons German for the past quarter of a century finds himself in no amazement about the war and its conduct by Germany, and to him the Kaiser as the Peace-bringer, the "shorter catechist," and the war lord, not to speak of the painter and the musician, show one strong personality and purpose underlying each exaggerated manifestation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Impressions of the Kaiser The fifth year Of the Great War reveals the enor mity, but it does not yet disclose the dénouement, of this crime; which has filled with grief and smit ten with poverty tens Of millions of homes, swept from the earth in the Vigor of youth the flower of the manhood of several great nations, and leaves vast spaces scorched and blasted by the fires of devastation to be again rendered habitable by the labors Of Old men, cripples, and half-famished chil dren. With such a scene spread out before the eyes of the civilized world, vituperation and invective are only signs Of impotence. We cannot repair this calamity by denunciation. We cannot prevent its recurrence without suppressing its cause. The first necessity is to perceive wherein is to be found the root Of this evil.

Book The Kaiser s War  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Kaiser s War Classic Reprint written by Austin Harrison and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kaiser's War Six of these chapters are republished from the English Review, in certain cases enlarged. On their appearance I was charged by some of my Liberal friends with Germanophobia. I hope this is not so. Up to the outbreak of the war I was in correspondence with good "pals" of mine in Germany; I have known many happy days there, I admire numbers of German things which I do not find in this country, not the least of which is a factual honesty of thought [Germans have been consistently honest in their attitude, our professional politicians have not]; as I have loved so also I have learnt there. In many ways the German attitude towards life is more pleasant than ours, certainly more intellectually stimulating.

Book The Kaiser as I Know Him  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Kaiser as I Know Him Classic Reprint written by Arthur N. Davis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kaiser as I Know Him For fourteen years the Kaiser was my patient. All I know of him and all that he told me came to me while the relation of patient and dentist existed between us. For that reason I felt at first that no matter how vital to the Allied cause might be the information I could give as to the Kaiser's Viewpoint, ambitions, and plans, the require ments of professional ethics must seal my lips and compel me to withhold it from the world at large. When, however, I considered the grave crisis that confronts the world and in which my own country is playing so important a part, and realised that what I knew of the Kaiser might prove of some value to my country, I concluded that my patriotic duty was para mount and rose superior to any of the ordinary demands of professional ethics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genseric: King of the Vandals and First Prussian Kaiser The play ran for two days - just long enough for news of its character to reach Potsdam and secure the attention of the Kaiser. Then came an order that it be at once suppressed. The simple German rubbed his eyes and scratched his ears! The millions who had not seen it now rushed to buy a Copy; and, of course I did the same - happening to be just then in Bavaria. NO reason had been given for the summary act of censorship and the more the people read, the less did they understand.

Book The Kaiser As He Is Or the Real William II

Download or read book The Kaiser As He Is Or the Real William II written by Henri de Noussanne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kaiser as He Is or the Real William II: Le Veritable Guillaume II But whether for Imperial weal or woe, whether per manency as a world Power or wreck and disintegration follow the reign and administration and dominance of Wilhelm II M. De Noussanne has prepared his readers for even the most surprising eventualities. From the intimate data with which he provides us no one will question the author's deductions that the German Em perot's individuality has stamped its expression upon the face of Germany. But the author does not deny nor does he seek to evade the fact that this face, in the eyes of the world, has become a singularly remarkable visage - a visage, the strongest and most human features of which were not even dreamed of by the Prussians, the Bavarians, and the Saxons who witnessed the Imperial accession of the 'never-to-be-forgotten grandfather at Versailles. Now, have the German peoples wrought this change in spite of the German Kaiser, or has the German Kaiser wrought it in spite of them? Our author has no doubt on the subj ect, for he looks upon Imperial disaster as inevitable. Other critics of inter national politics are welcome to difi'er from him. The material which he furnishes is no less valuable to them than it is to himself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book He Conquered the Kaiser  Classic Reprint

Download or read book He Conquered the Kaiser Classic Reprint written by H. A. Mason and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from He Conquered the Kaiser It was, moreover, his knowledge Of the motives of men and of monarchs that left him quite undismayed when the launch with its dead had rushed past him up-stream. He saw at once that the man who handled the tiller was an emissary of the Prince of Sylvania, and that he would not dare to disclose his plight to the police. He knew very well that it would be better for him to return and ask the aid of the man whose life he had sought than to have any dealings with the slow and exacting Officials of Scotland Yard. It was this that made Mr Jones SO confident when he said to Strong: He will come back. The accident of Strong's introduction to the incident was, of course, annoying; but Mr Jones felt quite sure of his silence, and saw no need for disclosing the cherished secret of his identity. Here, however, he made a miscalculation, for Mr Montgomery Jones' secret was quite well known to Strong. It was this knowledge, indeed, which to some extent had made the flirtation with Miss Diana Montgomery Jones so inexpressibly sweet. It is not every day that one can dally with a princess in disguise. For this strange young man possessed a certain element of romance, which, if it is present in men of action, produces great results. And romance is after all only imagination, which John Oliver Hobbes said she had found more keenly developed in men of affairs than in poets. And Strong, though at that time no one ever dreamed it, was essentially a man of affairs. He was for the time a dreamer-a lazy troubadour waiting to be stung into action by necessity; and when the sting that produces action comes to the man of imagination the world is apt to know of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blot on the Kaiser's Scutcheon These brief articles are sparks struck as it were from the anvil of events. They were written on trains, in hotels, in the intervals between public addresses. During the past year beginning October 1, 1917, Dr. Hillis, in addition to his work in Plymouth Church, and as President of The Plymouth Institute, has visited no less than one hundred and sixty-two cities, and made some four hundred addresses on "The National Crisis," "How Germany Lost Her Soul," "The Philosophy of the German Atrocities," and "The Pan-German Empire Plot," the substance of these lectures and addresses being given in the book, "German Atrocities," heretofore published. These articles are illustrative of and supplementary to the principles stated in that volume.

This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men Around the Kaiser: The Makers of Modern Germany William II., German Emperor and King of Prussia, is about to commemorate his Silver Jubilee. Twenty-five years of eventful sovereignty have brought his Empire to the pinnacle of national greatness. Under his dynamic leadership the Fatherland has advanced to front rank in the peaceful arts of commerce and trade, made herself the world's first military power, and become Britain's formidable rival for the mastery of the sea. No reign, medieval or modern, records a more inspiring story of a people's vault to affluence and might. Wondrous and eloquent are the statistical revelations of Germany's bounding growth in population, of Imperial Berlin's rise to metropolitan splendour, of the Empire's colossal foreign trade, of the amazing expansion of national wealth, of the development of the merchant marine, of the transformation of the Navy from a fleet of frigates into an Armada of Dreadnoughts, of triumphs countless in the realms of science, art and industry, which combine to make the German name synonymous with progress and power.
