To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Our Vessels Seized.
By similar conduct England had brought on the war for inde- pendence, which ended in the division of her empire. In precisely the same way she now proceeded to make it as arduous as possible for Washington to maintain neutrality, and thereby played directly into the hands of the party that supported France. The true policy demanded no sacrifices on the part of Great Britain. Civility and consideration in her dealings, and a careful abstention from wanton aggression and insul...t, were all-sufficient. But England disliked us. * * * She did not wish us to thrive and prosper, and she knew that we were weak and not in a position to enter upon an offensive war. " (Pages 169-170). Thus did Mr. Lodge correctly describe the attitude of England toward America, and the descrip- tion fits her as well in 1922 as it did in 1776 or in 1794, the only dif- ference being that we were then an infant nation, which England was anxious to destroy; today, we are a powerful nation, and she would do by diplomacy and the wiles of state-craft, what she could not do on the field of battle — destroy us as a nation, and make us a colony, dependent once again upon her.
