Paperback, [EAN: 9781330746011], Forgotten Books, Forgotten Books, Book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Forgotten Books, Excerpt from The Development of the European Nations, Vol. 2 of 1: 1870-1914In this Edition are included three new chapters, in which I seek to describe the most important and best-ascertained facts of the period 1900-14. Necessarily, the narrative is tentative at many points; and it is impossible to attain impartiality; but I have sought to view events from the German as well as the British standpoint, and to sum up the evidence fairly. The addition of these chapters has necessitated the omission of the former Epilogue and Appendices. I regret the sacrifice of the Epilogue, for it emphasised two important considerations, (1) the tendency of British foreign policy towards undue complaisance, which by other Powers is often interpreted as weakness; (2) the danger arising from the keen competition in armaments. No one can review recent events without perceiving the significance of these considerations. Perhaps they may prove to be among the chief causes producing the terrible finale of July-August 1914. I desire to express my acknowledgments and thanks for valuable advice given by Mr. J. W. Headlam, M.A., Mr. A. B. Hinds, M.A., and Dr. R. W.

Excerpt from The Development of the European Nations, Vol. 2 of 1: 1870-1914In attempting to write a history of contemporary affairs, I regard it as essential to refer to the original authority, or authorities, in the case of every important statement. I have sought to carry out this rule (though at the cost of great additional toil) because it enables the reader to check the accuracy of the narrative and to gain hints for further reading. To compile bibliographies, where many new books are coming out every year, is a useless task; but exact references to the sources of information never lose their value.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
