Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stead's Review, Vol. 49: April 6, 1918 As far as the object of the offensive is concerned. That should have disclosed itself before these lines appear. The fact that the hostile forces are driving towards Amiens shows, of course. That the immediate goal is to divide the British and French armies, but as such a division would not end the war it can only be regarded as a preliminary move. Assuming it successful what will follow? Have the enemy strength enough to launch a terrific offensive against the French, whilst holding up the British and preventing them from sending help to their Ally? It is difficult to say. But that the enemy object is to deal a heavy blow at the French seems certain. It may be that this will be directed at Paris. But it is more likely to be aimed against the field army. The Germans always try to put an army out of action rather than capture towns, for only by destroying its power of resistance can a nation be crushed. The Allied answer to the German advance is hourly expected. But thus far it has not been given. The reported drive against Arras proves that despite their terrific efforts the Germans are still strong and formid able, are able to continue their advance, and at the same time organise new drives against the British in the north and the French in the south. Our papers naturally minimise the German success, but are obliged to admit the gravity of the posi tion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: 1918: The end of the war to end all wars. The end of an era for victors and vanquished alike.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from When the Tide Turned: The American Attack at Chateau Thierry and Belleau Wood in the First Week of June, 1918 These are soul-stirring days. To live through them is a glory and a solemn joy. The words of the poet resound in our hearts: "God's in His heaven, all's well with the world." Events have shaped themselves in accordance with the eternal law. Once again the fundamental lesson of all history is borne in upon the world, that evil - though it may seem to triumph for a while - carries within it the seed of its own dissolution. Once again it is revealed to us that the God-inspired soul of man is unconquerable and that the power, however formidable, which challenges it is doomed to go down in defeat. A righteous cause will not only stand unshaken through trials and discomfiture, but it will draw strength from the very set-backs which it may suffer. A wrongful cause can only stand as long as it is buoyed up by success. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Some of them were once the greatest that we had, some the smallest; some the most powerful, some the weakest; some the richest, the poorest; some the wisest, some the most ignorant; some who labored for the progress of civilization, and some who lolled in luxury's lap, who checked the growth of a nation; but all changed now, in the same uniform, in a new equality, in a common purpose, a com mon love. The prince and the every day clerk are brothers; the little sons of the rich and the of humble shop hand stand side by side; for the battle for Democracy has already been won in the trenches. And under each khaki coat beats an honest and manly heart, a heart that has awakened, that has been purged of selfishness, that has been purified. And we see them, these soldiers in khaki, optimistic, cheerful in every occupation of the war. They are in the camps whistling bits of ragtime.
