Excerpt from The House of the Secret Maeve looked at the young man whom the Colonel had addressed, briskly, as though the sight of him was cheerful. He was a big fellow with chestnut hair, a freckled face and honest eyes. He was quite carelessly dressed in country homespuns, but for all that he had a clean, well-groomed air; and something about him, perhaps the faintest suggestion of a bowing at the knees, told of one who was constantly in the saddle. Up for your exam., eh i went on the Colonel. But what are you down here for? Come to meet someone You oughtn't to fritter away your time like that, Godfrey.

Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.
