Does not the affirmation that there are no good or bad peoples stand in contradiction with the tragic events of our times? Just as a bad influence often will ruin a whole family, there are also nations that drift into moral decay. In Germany and Japan an ideology that we call today moral insanity has taken possession of the masses during the last few decades. This is the reason why our civilization is locked in a life and death struggle against a barbaric power-madness.

Those who want to know why Germany is as it is today, will find the answer in the unique docuмentation of this book.

Germany is again losing the war, as she did in 1918, and the cry for fairness for the "poor innocent German people" resounds once more, but Americans and Germans do not mean the same thing when they talk about fairness. A pan-German uses that word only when he wants something for Germany at the expense of others.

Today we have to pay a high price for our ignorance of the German mentality. Shall we have to pay for it again?

Here, a mass of lies is exposed, coldly, almost without comment. It is a critical selection, from purely German sources and the best part is that these men often set forth their own shame with a world of pathos.

After reading in amazement this self-exposure of Germany's poorly camouflaged nationalists, one hopes that these docuмents may find their way into many hands, especially those of the columnists and radio-commentators who fill so vital a role in forming public opinion. For, here it is proved a hundred times over, how ancient and ingrained Hitlerism is in Germany; how genuinely German is this movement which today as so often in the past has found enthusiastic rebirth; how it presents the fullest expression of the desires of the German people, and will rise again in the future.

This is clearly a propaganda book...
