Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters From a German Staff Officer: Who Resided a Long Time in America, to a Friend in the United States My dear..., I have just read over your letter to the General for the second time. While the subject matter is fresh in my mind, I want to tell you how deep is the impression it has made on me, and how much I appreciate the opportunity of reading it. I have seen nothing that gives so clearly and dispassionately, Germany´s views of this war, and her side of some of the much discussed questions. It did not need this letter to convince me of the justice and righteousness of your claims, for I came here I hope, with my mind free and open to see and understand Germany and the Germans. I grant that it was hard at times in the States, to maintain an open mind, in the face of so poisoned and prejudiced a press. I am glad to note a fairer attitude in the public newspapers to-day, and I indulge the hope, that time will grant your great country, the just and true estimate, which it so richly deserves. May I add a word of my personal experiences - I have found here in my short stay, a grander example of unity, organization and patriotism, than I believed possible in these days. It is a source of inspiration and encouragement. It will be a pleasure to me to tell my people of it, where-ever and whenever I have the chance to do so. It augurs well for all of us as white men. Though we are in the midst of a great war, I feel that out of its fires and fierce heat and passions, will be moulded a fairer and truer faith in our mission as white men in this world. I thank you for the opportunity of reading this letter; and I assure you of my earnest belief that truth and justice always triumph, when they have such exponents as you and your people.
