The siege of Berlin is remembered by a woman whose brother was killed in the city's defence; the harsh realities of defeat and occupation are made vivid and unforgettable by someone whose home was turned into a soldiers' billet whose husband was shot by the Russian invaders. This book is at once a remarkable evocation of the changing face of a city at war and a powerful indictment of the folly and stupidity of war." - dust jacket. Unmarked with average wear.

New York: The Fatherland Corporation 1915. Book. Fair. Stapled Booklet. First Edition Thus. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. 4-46 pp. "The governments of England Russia and France thought through the publication of the exchange of diplomatic writings of the days before the beginning of WWI they could furnish a proof in the eyes of their own peoples and of the entire civilized world that the blame for the most gigantic shedding of blood which the world has ever experienced falls only upon 'war-lusting Germany' and that they for their part did all in their power to avoid the catastrophe. England has published a 'Blue Book' Russia an 'Orange Book' and France a 'Yellow Book.'" - p.5. "Dr. Karl Helfferich German Secretary of the Treasury reviews the 'White' 'Yellow' and 'Orange' papers and reaches a different conclusion from that of James M. Beck author of the 1914 book 'The Evidence in the Case' holding the Allies responsible for WWI". - front cover. "A translation from the semi-official Nord-deutsche Allgemeine Zeitung of Jan. 26 1914 of an exhaustive comparative study of the diplomatic documents published by the various warring countries concerning the origin of the world war." - p. 3. "Dr. Helfferich's brilliant analysis of the world situation was published first by George Stilke Berlin under the title of 'The Genesis of the Great War.' It appeared in the N.Y. Times under the title under which it is here reprinted." - p. 2. George Sylvester Viereck's The Fatherland Corporation also published a WWI-era periodical called The Fatherland which endorsed "Fair Play for Germany and Austria-Hungary". Grey card covers fragile with chips from front and back tips. Cover fold mostly open. Contents printed upon glossy stock which is clean unmarked and gently toned. A worthy copy of this important WWI document. The Fatherland Corporation Paperback

"The history of European warfare affords few examples of battles which have been more important in their results or more brilliant in their achievement than that of Vitoria. The campaign too which preceded it was distinguished by a series of the most able manoeuvres compelling the enemy to retreat from the frontiers of Portugal to a defensive position behind the Ebro without being able to oppose the allies in any general action. Thus in the short space of one month the influence which the French had held over the Peninsula during several years was brought to a fatal crisis." - pages 1-2.
