Excerpt from The Colonies and Imperial Defence
The security of Britain and of her oversea dominions has, for some years past, been engaging attention. Public interest in the question is increasing, and many able writers, chiefly in the Mother Country, have approached the subject. I have thought much on the problem in its various bearings, and the follow ing pages form my contribution to the dis cussion. A contribution which, coming from a Colonial who has served in the field with Colonials, and who knows their views and feelings, and the work of which they are capable, may, I trust, not be altogether worth less.
