Book Description
Excerpt from John Bull's Crime: Or Assaults on Republics After a hard campaign tour of six weeks in Ohio and other states during the months of September and October, 1899, my physician in Washington, D. C., advised me to take a long sea voyage, in order to get rest, as I was on the verge of nervous prostration. I immediately thought of a trip to Cape Town, South Africa, as my old friend and neighbor, Colonel J. G. Stowe, United States Consul General there, had been writing letters for two years urging me to visit him. I had been Assistant Secretary of the Interior for three years and had never taken a vacation, while the law entitled me to thirty days' leave of absence and thirty days' sick leave each year, therefore it seemed to me that I was entitled to a good, long vacation. The President said I had certainly earned it and should take it. At that time I knew but little about the South African war. What little I had read was favorable to the British side. It was claimed by British sympathizers that the Boers were uncouth savages and that the war was waged against them for the purpose of civilizing them. It was, therefore, a war for humanity and civilization. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from John Bull's Crime: Or Assaults on Republics It is not my purpose to heap abuse upon the people of the British Empire, individually or collectively, for the masses of them are not in entire sympathy with this war. Indeed, many of the most beautiful letters received congratulating me upon the course taken since my return to America are from men and women in England. What may be written will be directed not against the British people, but against the British government against the treaty breakers. The empire builders, the republic haters, and the liberty crushers - whose avarice. Selfishness and greed have been the cause of all the sorrow and suffering that have come to the homes of untold thousands not only in South Africa, but throughout the whole British Empire. That portion of the following pages devoted to an interview with Honorable F. W. Reitz, State Secretary of the South African Republic, is put in his own language, for the reason that the Boer side of the controversy placed before the reader in the language of the ablest scholar in the Boer Republic is much stronger than I can put it. And as this presentation covers the whole ground of the dispute it is especially desirable that the reader may grasp it as easily as possible.
