"P. H. Loyson's book hunts down all the subterfuges of dubious neutralities; it gives chase to all suspicious timidities; it combats all the criminal cavils.... All this part of the book (on Romain Rolland) is really grand and tragic." =Georges Renard= (Socialist, Professor at the Collège de France): "An old volunteer of 1870, like myself, cannot admit that a Frenchman should lounge in a foreign country and hover 'above the battle' when his country is threatened with death, together with all the human ideals for which she stands. Therefore I applaud the shots fired by this franc-tireur." =Le Progrès= (Athens): "Among the innumerable books which the great war has produced at Paris, this is one of powerful interest by a great French patriot, who is at the same time a writer of indisputable superiority." =Boston Evening Transcript= (Alvan F. Sanborn): "A striking contrast between the sturdiness, strenuousness, and boldness of the _ante-bellum_ pacificism of Loyson and the equivocalness and timidity of that of Rolland." =Le Journal des Débats=: "This masterly lesson, courageously given, will not be lost." =Le Radical= (Eugène Holland): "Inspired by his theme, the author soars to the heights of eloquence, which thus far had only been reached by the grand lyric flight of D'Annunzio. This book will live." =Cloth, 3s. 6d. net= HODDER AND STOUGHTON LONDON, NEW YORK AND TORONTO =The Bloodless War= BY EZIO M. GRAY Translated from the Italian by BERNAND MIALL THIS volume will interest the business man and politician as well as the general public. It shows how Germany, by means of her industrial or money-lending banks, obtained control of vast sums of Italian capital, and of most Italian industries; ruining those which competed with her, and making even those she favoured dependent on her for some necessary item, so that war meant, or was intended to mean, the economic ruin of Italy. What Germany did in Italy she has done elsewhere; and everywhere her banking and commerce go hand in hand with espionage. Signor Gray tells us what Italy is doing to shake off the German yoke, and what remains to be done. =Almost Ready.
