England and by Emile Joseph Dillon
"England and " by Dr. E. J. Dillon is a historical written during the early 20th century. The work provides a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between England and , particularly in the context of World War I, outlining 's actions, strategies, and the implications for Europe and beyond. Dillon, an insightful observer of the political landscape, draws upon his extensive knowledge from his experiences in various European chancelleries and borders to dissect the character of the German nation and its governmental objectives. At the start of the book, the author, Dr. Dillon, reflects on the tumultuous period leading up to the first years of World War I. He emphasizes that the war is not merely a conventional military conflict but a monumental struggle where nations deploy all their resources without scruples. Dillon discusses the illusion of peace that had dominated the last decades, countering it with the reality of the German state’s ambition for European dominance and the insidiousness with which it penetrated other nations' economic and political spheres, notably in Italy and Russia. He sets the stage for an exploration of the depth and complexity of 's preparations for war and its broader ambitions, suggesting that the outcome of the conflict will reshape national and international power dynamics.
