Excerpt from The Germans in France: Notes on the Method and Conduct of the Invasion, the Relations Between Invaders and Invaded, and the Modern Usages of War
The principles that prevail among civilized nations on these and similar points, have been Observed and put together by. Various writers; among others in recent times, by Professor Bluntschli,* of Heidel berg, whose work on the Law of Nations, published in 1868, contains the latest and most complete collection of rules - or, perhaps I should say, maxims - for the guidance of combatant armies that has appeared. But cases occur in war for which Professor Bluntschli has not provided; and some of the rules he puts forward - as, for ex ample, that money contributions are not to be levied, that military executions are to be avoided, that hostages are not to be taken, and that a duly authorized rising en masse is to be considered a legitimate Operation of defence - are disregarded by the government Professor Bluntschli serves.
