Hardcover. Condition: Good. Original publication (not a reprint). Retired library book of the US Army War College with usual library markings. First edition. Illustrated with maps. From the Foreword: IN ACCEPTING the burden of proof for my presumption, as a non-combatant, in addressing a body of officers of the combatant arms of the service on such a subject as "The Balkan Wars," I feel it incumbent upon me to give a brief account of my contact with the Balkan situation, covering a period of eighteen months, which afforded the opportunity for my observations. About the 1st of July, 1912, I landed in Trieste on sick leave of absence which was later arranged to terminate with the end of the year. Prom this port I took passage for a tour of the Dalmatian coast, on the eastern shore of the Adriatic, stopping at Pola, the principal Austrian naval base, Sebinicio, Spalato, Ragusa, and as far south as Cattaro, at the head of the Bays of Oattaro, which form a harbor much like that of New York with the sea as far away from the port as Sandy Hook is from Castle Garden. Cattaro, while Austrian and one of the finest naval harbors in the world, is the logical port of Cetenje, the capital of Montenegro. As an automobile post-route line between Cattaro and Cetenje was discovered, I continued my journey to Cetenje and the Lake of Scutari. On returning to the northern Adriatic by the same route, I landed at Fiume, crossed by rail to Trieste and thence by sea to Venice. In September, 1912, I went by rail from Vienna, through Buda-Pest, Belgrade, Sofia and Adrianople, to Constantinople, where I remained three weeks with my friend, Major J. R. M. Taylor, our capable and accomplished military attacks. There were, at that time, echoing- about Constantinople large and glowing rumors of the coming war, but as one can always hear anything and everything, both true and false, anywhere in the near East, and not knowing what or whom to believe, I grew so impatient in waiting for the long-advertised and often postponed "Balkan conflagration" that I sought refuge again in the less distrustful environments of Paris, returning there by way of the Black Sea through Constanza and Bucharest. War was actually declared between the Balkan States and Turkey on October 17, 1912. 150 pages.
