The Secret War on the United States in 1915
Author: Heribert von Feilitzsch
Publisher: Henselstone Verlag LLC
ISBN: 098503176X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 384
Book Description
The Secret War Council, Germany’s spy organization in New York, received orders from Berlin to stop the flow of munitions through terrorism in January 1915. German agents in the U.S. firebombed freighters on the high seas, incited labor unrest, fomented troubles along the Mexican-American border, and damaged or destroyed dozens of American factories and logistics installations. The German secret war against the United States in 1915, its discovery and publication, combined with the disastrous sinking of the Lusitania in May of that year, did much to prepare the American public to finally accept joining the Entente powers against Germany in 1917. This is the story of a group of German agents in the United States, who executed this mission.

Winner of the Ray Allen Billington Prize and the Phillis Wheatley Book Award "An American 'Odyssey,' the larger-than-life story of a man who travels far in the wake of war and gets by on his adaptability and gift for gab." —Wall Street Journal A black child born on the US-Mexico border in the twilight of slavery, William Ellis inhabited a world divided along ambiguous racial lines.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Massey-Gilbert Blue Book of Mexico: A Directory in English of the City of Mexico The Blue Book of Mexico, in its completed form, has four parts. Of these tthe first two, in addition to the customary incidental directory information, contain social and club features particularly of value to the Anglo-American colony of Mexico City, but of general interest as well to Americans and Englishmen at home, on whose account the matter is made somewhat extended and explanatory. English-Speaking Residents. The third part is the directory of English-speaking residents of the Federal District. The unusual demand for the Blue Book, and the sustained friendly interest it has excited in Mexico, render unnecessary further explanation of this feature. All the colony knows of the house-to-house canvass which secured these names, and of their verification by means of 5, 000 return postal cards. For the ready response to these cards, for the heavy advance subscription, and for the continued cordial comment of the press and the people, the publishers are warmly grateful. They endeavor to show their gratitude in the presentation of a book which shall exceed every promise. The Classified Directory. The classified business directory of all Mexico City business firms, which composes the fourth part, is the most important part of all. Its double index makes it serviceable equally to English-and Spanish-speaking residents of the Capital and the Republic, while its distinctly American method of classification will prove readily comprehensible to business men in the United States and England. This classified list was carefully compiled, under the direction of the representative of a prominent mercantile agency, from the official list of firms furnished by the Mexican Treasury Department, and was verified by return postal cards sent, with their particular classification, to each firm. The response to these cards was general, and practically every business man in the city is an advance subscriber.
