A Diplomatic Diary (1917) is a book written by Hugh Gibson, an American diplomat who served as the Secretary of the American Legation in Brussels during World War I. The book is a firsthand account of Gibson's experiences and observations during his time in Brussels, where he witnessed the German invasion and subsequent occupation of the city. The diary entries offer a unique perspective on the war, as Gibson was able to witness the conflict from a diplomatic standpoint, interacting with both German officials and Belgian civilians. Throughout the book, Gibson provides detailed descriptions of the devastation and suffering caused by the war, as well as his own personal struggles to maintain his neutrality as an American diplomat in a war-torn country.In addition to his observations on the war, Gibson also provides insights into the political and social climate of Europe in the early 20th century, including the tensions between different European powers and the rise of nationalism. Overall, A Diplomatic Diary (1917) is a valuable historical document that offers a firsthand account of one of the most significant events of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
