Excerpt from The Expansion of Europe, Vol. 2 of 2: A History of the Foundations of the Modern World When in the last months of 1648 was signed the great peace which brought to an end the Thirty Years' War and with it the mediaeval polity which it finally destroyed; as the army of diplomats whose work it was dispersed to their respective governments, the awe-inspiring mass of documents which formed the fruit of their long labors might have led men to believe that Europe would hasten to enjoy the peace which she so needed and which her people for the most part so greatly desired. But whatever hopes Of quiet were enter tained, were already far on the way to disappointment; for the Europe to which the diplomats returned was even then altered or altering before their eyes and already shaping itself for new conflict. Scarcely a state of any consequence prepared to recruit its resources by the arts of peace; scarcely a royal house but faced a crisis in its fortunes; scarcely a people but was stirring in unrest or already en gaged in revolution. SO far from ushering in a period Of peaceful progress the Westphalian treaties became the start ing point for new and bloody rivalries.

Excerpt from The Commercial Side of Territorial Expansion: Speech of Hon. Wm; M'. Howard, of Georgia, in the House of Respresentatives The decision to go to war with Spain was suddenly made, not withstanding the long-continued existence of the causes which we proclaimed as justifying hostilities, and the public mind was as little prepared for the ready comprehension of the consequences of victory as was our Government for the conflict; and it was, therefore, but natural that the hysteria of our exultation should be prolonged by mysticism on the part of those who conceived that the golden opportunity was present to convert a war begun for humanity into one of conquest for commercial gain. The change of purpose was as radical as it was sudden, and involved our plighted faith to the world and with each other.

Excerpt from The Game of Empires: A Warning to America It is not implied, of course, that perfect symmetry can be given to a production Of this character by thus choosing, somewhat arbitrarily, a given date as a point of departure. The causes that underlie the War can be traced almost as far back as any investigator chooses to go. The battle of Waterloo, the Crimean War, the franco-prussian War, the recent Balkan wars, and various other critical periods in modern European history, Offer themselves as foundation stones upon which the historian might reasonably base his work. But if perfection of form is not possible, if the roots of the present con ict are too numerous and remote to be traced to their final origins, if, as is apparent, the ultimate outcome of the greatest Of all wars can not be, in all its bearings, forecast, it still remains possible to clarify the chaotic welter of recent events in Europe by a process of elimination that brings into View, to American eyes at least, something approaching a desirable historic perspec tive. If, in the efiort to obtain this perspective, we come upon revelations that, in their cumulative force, seem to be of grim significance to the people of the United States, the following pages may justify themselves to even the indiffer ent or the too optimistic American.

Excerpt from The Irrepressible Conflict: Light Thrown on Dark Places It is our purpose to lift the curtain to show the actors on the stage. Insincerity, inconsistency and individual interest have totally hidden the actors on the stage and obscured the vision of all not behind the curtain. If the acts of a few men affect the welfare of man kind in general, certainly one cannot be censured for truthfully revealing their acts: but the truth will give greater offense than misrepresentation. We console ourselves with the fact that if some are offended, it will be because of the truth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Colonial History For practical convenience the history of the territories beyond the confines of Europe that are inhabited or governed by men of European stock is classified under the rough heading of "Colonial History." In the United States of America, Brazil and the Spanish-speaking states of Central and South America the early colonies have cast off the yoke of the mother-country, and colonial history is concerned with their story only during the period that preceded the declaration of their independence. The subject does not deal with the internal history of particular oversea communities, which belongs rather to the "history of colonies," but with the process whereby Europeans have extended their influence beyond their own boundaries, and have either set up thriving communities of their own race or established their rule over native populations.
