Synopsis
Excerpt from The Origin, Causes and Object of the War
IN response to many requests for publica tion in full of the lectures delivered under the title of The Origin, Causes and Object of the War, an attempt has been made to give the substance of many lectures in the form of one. Over twenty have been delivered in various parts of South Africa, and the blendings of so many reports is not easy. Many inter esting details and nearly all the illustra tive incidents have been omitted to keep the publication within reasonable limits. If there is some repetition of important matter it is merely because complete rewriting and recasting would have been necessary to avoid it.

The Origin, Causes and Object of the War (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Written close to the outbreak of World War 1, this book argues that Germany's invasion of neutral Belgium, coupled with its violation of the neutrality of Luxembourg, was the solitary cause of Britain's decision to join the war. The author carefully examines many of the factors that led up to the outbreak of the war, including the assassination of Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, placed against the backdrop of burgeoning Serbian nationalism; German ambitions and scheming to attain world power; Austria-Hungary's designs on the Balkans; and Russia's determination to defend its Slavic brethren. Nonetheless, the author contends that none of these issues, nor even a general European war, would have led to Britain's participation if Germany had not invaded Belgium. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330661895_0
