Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from World War at Its Climax: Being Personal Imprints of the Great Conflict and Close Up Glimpse of the World Tragedy In narrating or portraying his unusual experiences in the thrilling scenes of 1918 which marked a momentous and notable journey by twelve newspaper men under most favorable auspices and the escort of the British Government, the writer does not attempt to dignify his production by calling it a book or himself an author. Nor has he the vanity to predict for it general circulation or currency. Not for one moment does he harbor the thought that untold thousands avidly await its appearance, anticipating that it is to contain wonderful World War secrets or will seek to solve the many vexatious problems arising out of that great conflict. On the contrary, it is a tale told by a newspaper publisher whose aim is to collect a few of the outstanding things he saw and wrote about while abroad, and talked of when he returned home. Primarily, kith and kin were first and foremost in his mind, and if the record of his experiences and observations in the terrific, crashing days which brought an end to the most cruel and awful war in history, interests or enlightens those for whom its compilation is intended, he will feel himself fully justified for time taken in writing his humble effort, "All of which he saw and a part of which he was." When events herein recorded were occurring Germany was charged with monstrous outrages, with vandalism and brutalities; and Allies and Allied sympathizers sought to wreak vengeance upon her unfortunate head. Time may soften, and history correct, reports made in the heat and bitterness of war at its zenith, when such aspersions were uttered.
