Excerpt from Military Needs and Military Policy In conclusion, I desire to express my gratitude to Lord Roberts, who has done me the honour of contributing an introduction to this book. Lord Roberts has correctly interpreted and anticipated my earnest desire that he should not make himself responsible for the controversial portions of this work. That is a burden which must fall on my shoulders alone, and I am content now, as always, to bear it. But it is a great encouragement and stimulus to me to be able to print these kindly words from the ffield Marshal. Lord Roberts has done more than any living man to make the people of this country realise that there is a danger, and that all is not well. His great name and fame have given weight to his words, and have made millions of men who never gave a thought to these matters before think about our military problem, and about the peril in which we stand. As one who shares to the full Lord Roberts's belief, and who, though far less competent to commend it to others, is not less sincere in his desire to impress his countrymen with the gravity of the situation, the author ventured to ask Lord Roberts for his assistance. The introduc tion to this volume is the kind and generous response. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
