The Perils Of Peace Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Perils of Peace In revising the proofs of this book I realise how fast events are moving. The return of Russia, which even when I wrote was as obvious to rrie as it must, one would think, have been obvious to everybody ex cept Mr George, is already an accomplished fact. The offensive in the West, which I speak of as a future event, is already in pro gress. It would be unwise to prophesy concerning these matters. Before my book is out the military situation may have changed for the worse or for the better. But it is important to emphasise. The fact that the peril of which I write in this book is one which increases instead of diminishes with the improved prospects of victory. The greater the measure of our apparent success, the larger the concessions which the Enemy will be disposed to make, and the more dangerous the possible efi'ect'of such concessions upon uninstructed opinion. For, as you and I realise, in dealing with the thing called Prussia, the acceptance of any concession short of unconditional sur render, is an act of suicide.

Modern coverage of world events suggest that war and violence are key to contemporary society. History can convince us that it has ever been so, and many theorist of international relations argue that nothing is likely to change. Roy Weatherford argues that a profound change in social relations is imminent as national sovereignty yields to a democratic world culture, speaking a world language and living as a world wide family - the human family. For too long world peace has seemed a noble but unattainable ideal. Weatherford shows that it is now both economically and politically possible and is therefore our moral duty.

Excerpt from Fighters for Peace At first it did not seem as if Destiny had picked him out for a king. His older brother was the heir presumptive, and nobody dreamed that a lad so vigorous would not live to reign. Prince Albert, therefore, was permitted to go quietly and happily along through his childhood without "the fierce light which beats upon a throne" dazzling or bewildering his young spirit. He was born in April, 1875, in the palace of the Rue de la Regence in Brussels, but of all the royal houses where he spent part of his time, he loved the chateau of Amerois best. It was beautiful living on a hilltop, with a quaint old town that seemed like a story-book village nestling at its foot, and the ancient Ardennes forest for a playground.
