Oxford Pamphlets on World Affairs

Abstract

THE admirable series of Oxford Pamphlets on World Affairs, of which the first thirteen titles given above were published before the outbreak of war, have lost nothing of their value on that score. The brief accounts they give of current international topics will serve to assist in the clear understanding of the events which forced Great Britain into war, and to strengthen the determination to bend all our efforts to success.
