Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The War Lords In this book an attempt is made to consider the origins, issues, and conduct of the war in the light of the personalities of the principal actors. The influence of men upon events is always a deeply interesting subject, but in the world tragedy of to-day that influence is a matter of practical concern as well as of intellectual curiosity. As Hazlitt, a century ago, saw "The Spirit of the Age" in its representative men, so we may to-day see "The Spirit of the War" working through the principals whom events have brought into the fierce light that plays upon the European stage. Unlike previous books by the same author, the object is not, primarily, the elucidation of character, but the relation of character to specific events, and the scope of the treatment therefore is enlarged to include those events. Many of the articles have appeared in The Daily News, The Atlantic Monthly, and Pearson´s Magazine, and reflect in some measure the spirit and circumstances of the moment at which they were written. In certain respects the circumstances have changed. For example, M. Venizelos has been restored by the people of Greece to power. It has, however, been thought well to reproduce the articles substantially in their original form. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
