In The Claws Of The German Eagle is a historical book written by Albert Rhys Williams. It is a first-hand account of the author's experiences during World War I as a correspondent for the New York Evening Post. The book details Williams' travels across Europe, including France, Germany, and Russia, and his encounters with soldiers, civilians, and politicians. The book provides a vivid and detailed description of the war and its impact on the people caught in its midst. Williams shares his observations on the brutality of the war, the suffering of soldiers and civilians, and the political and social upheaval caused by the conflict. In particular, the book focuses on the role of Germany in the war and its aggressive tactics, which the author compares to the claws of an eagle. Williams provides a critical analysis of Germany's military strategy and its impact on the war effort. Overall, In The Claws Of The German Eagle is a compelling and informative book that offers a unique perspective on World War I. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the war and its impact on Europe and the world.The outbreak of the Great War found me in Europe as a general tourist, and not in the capacity of war-correspondent. Hitherto I had essayed a much less romantic role in life, belonging rather to the crowd of uplifters who conduct the drab and dreary battle with the slums. The futility of most of these schemes for badgering the poor makes one feel at times that these battles are shams and unavailing. This is depressing. It is thrilling, then, suddenly to acquire the glamorous title of war-correspondent, and to have before one the prospect of real and actual battles.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
