'Germany's Submarine Policy', (1919). Scene from the First World War, 1914-1919: 'The inhuman practice adopted by Germany of sinking without warning merchant ships of friend or foe, created a revulsion of horror throughout the civilised world. In their lust for some form of victory over the forces of the Allies, they even carried their policy of "frightfulness" to the point of sinking hospital ships.' From "The History of the Great European War: its causes and effects", Vol. V, by W. Stanley Macbean Knight. [Caxton Pulishing Company, Limited, London, 1919]
