Abstract

Ambassador Gerard's Observations on Germany

November 1, 1917 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "My Four Years in Germany," by Jarnds W. Gerard. The declaration that Gerard would write of his experiences in Germany aroused great and natural anticipation. Expectancy was, indeed, tempered by some doubt as to the propriety of such publication; and it was recalled that the question of good taste had before been raised when a predecessor published reminiscences under circumstances a great deal less striking. Nor was this feeling diminished by advertising to foretell the appearance of the parts of his story in a newspaper, since these announcements contained so little that was sensational and extreme.
