“Germany and the Next War,” by Gen-
eral Friedrich von Bernhardi
The most scholarly presentation of the
German point of view toward the world
and toward themselves is to be found in
Jeneral Friedrich von Bernhardi’s book
“Germany and the Next War.” Whatever
else one may say of the volume, it is
a scholarly presentation of the German
side of the question. Those who pretend
to an intelligent interest in this world
cataclysm should familarize themselves
with it.
“Germany and England, " by J. A. Cramb
About the volume entitled “Germany
and England,” it*is only necessary to
quote what Field Marshal Lord Roberts
wrote to John Murray, the publisher: “I
hope that every one who wishes to under-
stand the present crisis will read this
book. There are things in it which will
cause surprise and pain but nowhere else
