Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from German Achievements in America: A Tribute to the Memory of the Men and Women, Who Worked, Fought and Died for the Welfare of This Country; And a Recognition of the Living Who With Equal Enterprise, Genius and Patriotism Helped in the Making of Our United States The great world war which has plunged the European nations into endless misery, suffering and death, has brought embarrassment also to all American citizens of German descent. Sowing in unprecedented manner discord, envy, calumny and prejudice, it compelled the German Americans constantly to parry most unwarranted insinuations, launched by men who ought to know better, yet apparently find delight in questioning the loyalty of the German Americans toward the land of their adoption. If there be any one inclined to lend an ear to these most despicable and baseless insinuations, let him inform himself through the pages of this book of the glorious past of the German element in America, of its well-nigh endless record of achievements and sacrifices on behalf of the nation, of its enduring patriotism when others failed of their duty or knew not where to turn. The descendants of Germans in this country may justly be proud of the fact that their ancestors were among the first American pioneers; that they were the makers of true American homes, and that they participated in laying the foundations upon which the entire present-day structure of our United States has been reared. That the reverent love which the Germans bear the land of their birth in no way tends to diminish the loyalty which they owe to the country of their adoption, is a fact which no fair-minded man requires to be proved, but of which this record bears ample witness. In defense of the Constitution, for the preservation of liberty and the rights of man they will stand firm and unafraid as of yore. In view of these facts it is the paramount duty of all Americans of German descent to unite in order to take appropriate measures in self-defense as well as to protect their good name.
