Book Description

Excerpt from The War Guilt and Peace Crime, of the Entente Allies I have held the belief from the beginning of the struggle that Russia, Great Britain and France were essentially as guilty of bringing on the World War as Germany. Even if this guilt had been very generally recognized, a book such as this might have been deemed neither wise nor expedient, provided the victors had atoned for their share in the guilt by acting with some de gree of moderation when the time for settle ment had arrived. But when the terrible nature of the Peace settlement is contemplated, one would be untrue to his own conscience as well as lacking in duty to humanity if no attempt were made to reopen this whole question, now that free speech and a free press are again in our possession. The purpose of this book is to show the guilt of the Entente Allies, America's unwise partici patiou in the struggle, the evil nature of the Peace settlement, and most important of all the structural changes which will be necessary in the governments of such countries as Great Britain, France, Germany and America, to the end that the people will become the real masters of their own destiny, so that a repetition of such a world calamity may not again occur.
