Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A German-American's Confession of Faith
In View of the bitter and ill informed eriti cism which my stand during the present war has evoked from many Germans and German Americans, I think it a duty' both to myself and to the cause which I represent to bring together at least some of the documents in which my course of action is contained. They consist of articles and other kinds of contributions to vari ous magazines and newspapers between October 1914 and May 1915, dealing successively with the following topics: the moral and spiritual forces of contemporary Germany, the question of American neutrality, the duties of German Americans both toward the land of their fathers and their adopted country, the mission of America for the peace of Europe.
Slight as are these contributions to the litera ture of the great world con?ict that engulfs us, they are at least inspired by the endeavor to be loyal to obligations old and new.
