Book Description
Excerpt from The World's Work War Manual of the Great Conflict of 1914 The nations of Europe are interrupting history again, fighting over the old I battles on the old battlefields. One hundred ears ago Napoleon ranged himself and the greatest army of the age against all Europe, and almost his most cherished ambition was the breaking of the supremacv of England on the sea. England then as now had a "two-power standard" for her navy. It was demonstrated at Trafalgar where Nelson met and defeated the combined forces of the French and Spanish fleets. England sent an army into Belgium against the Emperor Napoleon in 1815. There has been no English army in western Europe since, until now when the Emperor William invades Belgium and threatens Antwerp. the best base of operations against England. England again has an army trying to do again what was done at Waterloo. In 1866 Bismarck went to war with Austria because he felt that such a war would unify Germany. In 1914 Austria goes to war with Servia to solidify its heterogeneous dominions. Forty-four years ago Prussia went to war with France for Alsace and Lorraine and the dominant position in Europe. For the same stake over the same ground the same people are fighting to-day. With the declaration of war the world turned back to Trafalgar, to Waterloo, to Koniggratz, to the Franco-Prussian War. Nothing has been settled. These same battles are being fought again. The names are a little different, the battlefields a few miles apart, but the same principles are there. In the paintings of these b-gone fights is a vivid picture of the glory, heroism, death, ruin, waste, and futility) of it all.
