Book Description
Excerpt from The German General Staff and Its Decisions, 1914-1916 This book is written in memory of all those who gave their lives and of those who suffered for the Fatherland. It will not praise their deeds in detail. It needs no herald for those who are living and want to see, and a stronger voice than mine will render to the coming generations the sublime song of German self-sacrifice, of German loyalty, and of German heroism in grave but glorious days. But the book will attempt to set forth in an intelligible form, according to my knowledge at the time of their occurrence, those operative ideas by which the best of us were guided in battle and victory during the two years of the war when I was at the head of the General Staff. My statements do not afford any history of the war in the ordinary sense of the world. They touch upon the events of the war, and other occurrences connected with the latter, only in so far as is necessary to justify the decisions of the General Staff. They are not written for or against anybody. A judgment is only given, or a deduction made, where it seemed unavoidable in order to explain my actions.

At War in Distant Waters
Author: Phillip G Pattee
Publisher: Naval Institute Press
ISBN: 1612511953
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
At War in Distant Waters investigates the reasons behind Great Britain's combined military and naval offensive expeditions outside of Europe during the Great War. Often regarded as unnecessary sideshows to the conflict waged on the European continent, Pattee argues that the various campaigns were necessary adjuncts to the war in Europe, and fulfilled an important strategic purpose by protecting British trade where it was most vulnerable. Since international trade was essential for the island nation's way of life, Great Britain required freedom of the seas to maintain its global trade. While the German High Seas Fleet was a serious threat to the British coast, forcing the Royal Navy to concentrate in home waters, the importance of the island empire's global trade made it a valuable target to Germany's various commerce raiders, just as Admiral Tirpitz's risk theory had anticipated.
