Book synopsis

Excerpt from How Germany Seeks to Justify Her Atrocities In a pamphlet entitled German Atrocities from German evidence, I published extracts from about thirty diaries taken from prisoners of war. In these diaries the German soldiers depict themselves or their companions in arms as incendiaries, robbers and murderers who, however, in ordinary circumstances, only burn, rob and murder to order and in the course of their military duty. This pamphlet, which was published towards the beginning of January, spread through the world with great rapidity in thousands of copies; and while this was happening the German press maintained profound silence on the subject. At last this silence has been broken. On the 28th February a seven column article which pretended to be a refutation of my pamphlet appeared in the semi-official Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung. Almost immediately attention was drawn to the article by a wireless message from the Nauen wireless station, and on the 24th March a second wireless telegram gave a general direction to the Germanophile press throughout the world to produce frequent references to the article.
