The Kaiser pressed for peace and accused Belgian and British actions, while asserting German wartime cruelty and antisubmarine tactics. The interview reveals German attempts to influence U.S. policy and public opinion.
An American interviewer recalls conversations with the Kaiser during the early war period. The Kaiser discussed German war methods at length, and the interviewer notes that his nationality may have encouraged frankness. The first postwar meeting occurred on August 10 at the Berlin palace.
The Kaiser defends sub warfare and booty as wartime facts while detailing captures and punishments.
