""I want to bring home to our people the gravity of the situation;
because I want to tell them that the military and naval power of
the German Empire is unbroken; that of the twelve million men whom
the Kaiser has called to the colours but one million, five hundred
thousand have been killed, five hundred thousand permanently
disabled, not more than five hundred thousand are prisoners of war,
and about five hundred thousand constitute the number of wounded or
those on the sick list of each day, leaving at all times about nine
million effectives under arms. I state these figures because
Americans do not grasp either the magnitude or the importance of
this war. Perhaps the statement that over five million prisoners of
war are held in the various countries will bring home to Americans
the enormous mass of men engaged."" James W. Gerard (Late U.S.
Ambassador to the German Imperial Court) This book is part of the
World War One Centenary series; creating, collating and reprinting
new and old works of poetry, fiction, autobiography and analysis.
The series forms a commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one
of the world's bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this
tragic yet fascinating period of human history. Each publication
also includes brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help
the reader place the work in its historical context.
""In some measure this book is a continuation of MY FOUR YEARS IN
GERMANY, the narrative here being carried up to the time of my
return home, with some observations on the situation I have found
in the United States. What I want especially to impress upon the
people of the United States is that we are at war because Germany
invaded the United States-an invasion insidiously conceived and
vigorously prosecuted for years before hostilities began;-that this
war is our war;-that the sanctity of American freedom and of the
American home depend upon what we do NOW."" James W. Gerard (Late

1917. The author was the late Ambassador to the German Imperial
Court. Illustrated. From the Foreword: I am writing what should
have been the last chapter of this book as a foreword because I
want to bring home to our people the gravity of the situation;
because I want to tell them that the military and naval power of
the German Empire is unbroken; that of the twelve million men whom
the Kaiser has called to the colors but one million, five hundred
thousand have been killed, five hundred thousand permanently
disabled, not more than five hundred thousand are prisoners of war,
and about five hundred thousand constitute the number of wounded or
those on the sick list of each day, leaving at all times about nine
million effectives under arms. I state these figures because
Americans do not grasp either the magnitude or the importance of
this war. Perhaps the statement that over five million prisoners of
war are held in the various countries will bring home to Americans
the enormous mass of men engaged. Contents: My First Year in
Germany; Political and Geographical; Diplomatic Work of First
Winter in Berlin; Militarism in Germany and the Zabern Affair;
Psychology and Causes Which Prepared the Nation for War; At Kiel
Just Before the War; The System; The Days Before the War; The
Americans at the Outbreak of Hostilities; Prisoners of War; First
Days of the War: Political and Diplomatic; Diplomatic Negotiations;
Mainly Commercial; Work for the Germans; War Charities; Hate;
Diplomatic Negotiations; Liberals and Reasonable Men; The German
People in War; and Last. Due to the age and scarcity of the
