German Views Of America In War Reflections From Munich
Professor L. Bailey in Munich reports German opinion of the United States and the war. Many see America as uncultured mercenary and dangerous, yet much hostility stems from distrust of Republican government and rivalry with American commerce. Bailey believes German interests align with the US, predicting no rift and shared civilization goals. Also a Paris dispatch claims Captain General Augustin told the Spanish crown that Manila is under German hands, a report treated as absurd.
