Excerpt from National Defence: A Study in Militarism I have tried in this book to prove that militarism of an unlimited kind is a necessary consequence of the political policy which European States have been pursuing hitherto. For some years I have been forced against my will nearer and nearer to the conclusion that, given the way in which we have been conducting our foreign affairs and the features which our entente with Russia and France have been assuming, war was becoming inevitable and the policy of the National Service League was becoming an unavoidable calamity. We could not get the country to take a sufficiently apprehensive interest in its European policy, and the others could not induce it to face the responsibilities of its position.
