Description
There is one relevant topic of capital importance which the author has deliberately omitted; the causes of, and our preparations for, the Great War. His reason is twofold: first, that he has already gone over the ground in his book “The Genesis of the War”; and next, that since its publication, there has appeared a more complete and detailed survey on the monumental work, “Twenty-five Tears: 1892-1916,” by Lord Grey of Fallodon. The author wishes to acknowledge gratefully the help which has again been accorded to him by Mr. Alexander Mackintosh, whose wide and accurate knowledge of our political history, coupled with a rare capacity for research, has been throughout his work of invaluable service. Bound in black cloth with dustjacket. Foxing and tanning to edges and some pages, as well as to the dustjacket. Some insect damage particularly to front board and spine. Cracked front hinge. Hardcover. Published by Cassell & Co 1926
