Pan-Germany : $b The disease and cure

This compact work offers a clear-eyed look at the German strategy that aimed to reshape Europe through political intrigue, economic pressure and covert diplomacy. Written during the height of the conflict, it was assembled from a series of articles that originally appeared in a leading literary magazine, giving readers a sense of the urgency felt on the home front.

The author, a French publicist who spent decades studying German ambitions, pulls together detailed evidence of how Berlin sought to manipulate foreign governments and public opinion. He explains the “drawn‑game” peace proposal, the use of cheap war tactics, and the broader vision of a Pan‑German order that threatened liberty beyond the battlefield.

Listeners will find a well‑structured, historically grounded narrative that reads like a warning from the past. Its brisk style and thorough documentation make it a valuable glimpse into the mindset of wartime analysts and the arguments that shaped American resolve.
