E-book Title: American Opinions on the War
Author: Various
Book Description: The original work, entitled Sixty American Opinions on the War was
created in 1915, when Europe was already engrossed in the "Great War"
(World War I), and America was predominately still an isolationist
nation. There was obviously much debate over whether America should
become involved in the war, for many and good reasons.
THIS publication consists of the first four opinions, only.
Since the book was produced in London, it's intent must surely have
been to garner support for American entry into, and/or support of the
War. The "opinions" are compiled from various sources, such as essays,
books, articles, etc.
The original Preface provides a good description of the book:
THE object of this little book is to show how many friends we have
in America.
The selection of "American Views" does not pretend to be exhaustive.
If time had allowed, it would doubtless have been easy to cite the favourable
opinions of many other Americans as eminent as those here represented.
As a rule those individuals whose opinions have been published in
book or pamphlet form are purposely quoted at much less length than those
whose contributions have appeared in newspapers or private letters only.
The cordial thanks of the compilers are due to the Authors, Editors,
and Publishers whose generosity has made the collection possible.
The contributions have, for obvious reasons, been arranged in
alphabetical order.More... |
