Excerpt from Alsace-Lorraine Since 1870 At first sight it may seem that the author has pre sented the French point of view, pure and simple, since the bibliography appended contains a great many French titles, but it will be noted that the final sources are largely German, and that the effort has been made here to condemn the conquerors out of their own mouths. Many French books and articles have been used, chiefly for the quotations they furnish from newspaper and magazine articles unobtainable in America, in which Germans of consequence have expressed themselves with more freedom than in the formal propaganda liter ature sent abroad to prove by mere declaration, without demonstration, the attachment of the two provinces to their self-appointed fatherland.
