This Kttle book is one that every American should read, because it is not only a gem in itself, and worthy to be placed among English Classics for its clearness of thought and expression, its restrained eloquence, and its broad historical knowledge, but because it explains very lucidly, not the occasion, but the cause (the deep-seated cause) of the present war. The occasion, so greedily seized upon by Germany, was the refusal of Servia to yield to the impossible ultimattim of A ustria. Austria and Servia, and the loudly proclaimed racial conflict between Slav and Serb, have already vanished from the scene and are of little accotmt now. The real cause, as shown by Professor Cramb, is the intense hatred of Germany for England, and her lofty ambition to establish a world empire upon the ruins of the British Empire.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This thoughtful book focuses on the deep-seated historical, cultural, and political currents shaping the ever-shifting and often antagonistic relations between Germany and England. The authors, starting in the 19th century -a period when the two nations began to be considered equals - traces the evolution of a German mindset that increasingly saw England as a barrier to its own imperial aspirations. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of German thinkers, historians, poets, and politicians, demonstrating how their collective efforts laid the groundwork for the anti-English sentiment that permeated German society. The concluding chapters underscore the book's central claim - that a profound shift in German thinking occurred after 1871, with England replacing France as Germany's main political, economic, and cultural rival. This intensifying rivalry would ultimately culminate in the outbreak of World War I.
