“The statements in Ludendorff’s first volume were so bold that there arose a demand for the source on which he based many of his sensational assertions. This demand the former Quartermaster-General of the German armies now seeks to meet in a second volume.” (N Y Times) “Among the documents included are the report of the conference between Bethmann-Hollweg, Hindenburg and Ludendorff at Pless, when the unrestricted submarine campaign was finally decided upon, and the violent letters exchanged between the chancellor, Hindenburg, Ludendorff, and the foreign office revealing the internal difficulties of Germany in 1916. The matter of American participation, as the German authorities viewed and discussed it, is gone into thoroughly.” (Springf’d Republican)
