Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The British Command of the Sea: And What It Means to Canada
It has already become a commonplace to say, [that the Empire is beginning to realize how much the present war has advanced the great question of Imperial Defence. It is also beginning to dawn on the outside public that the cardinal principle involved is that every part of the Empire has an interest in the whole; and that the whole has an interest in each and every part. And there is even some general recognition of the fact that the loss of South Africa would make the problem of defence twice as hard as it is now, and would shake the very foundation of that Imperial security on which we all rely.
