Face to Face with Kaiserism by James W. Gerard
Excerpt from the former American ambassador’s reflections on German autocracy before and during World War I. He argues the Kaiser alone could not force mobilization without staff threats, notes the mid- ages backing of Prussian rule, and cites repeated German calls for conquest and a larger empire. He warns of postwar rebellion if peace does not satisfy German aims.
