Excerpt from The Origin of the War: Facts and Documents
These pages have not been written to gratify' the passions of nationalism of any kind or to indulge in hatred of hostile countries and na tions. I believe that if the peoples of civilized countries had correct notions of each other's real disposition and were not misled by interested persons, this fearful war might never have been precipitated. And I fear that an increase of hatred between the civilized nations of the eartli' will be its most deplorable result.
