Contents: Biographical Note; Foreword by Theodore Roosevelt; The Headquarters of the Great General Staff; Von Bissing's Headquarters; and A Belgian Record. �������One of the most graphic pictures of the German attitude, the attitude which has rendered this war inevitable, is contained in this book. It is a convincing, and an evidently truthful, exposition of the shocking, the unspeakably dreadful moral and intellectual perversion of character which makes Germany at present a menace to the whole civilized world.�������This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
