Summary "New York Times Current History: The European War from the Beginning to March…" is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. This publication provides an extensive examination of the events leading to World War I, focusing on the roles of various nations and their justifications for entering the conflict. The text appears to include speeches, declarations, and analyses that represent multiple viewpoints, particularly emphasizing the perspectives of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and their adversaries. The opening of the work sets the stage for a thorough discussion of the war, starting with a noticeable inquiry about its origins: “Who began the war, and why?”. It appears to introduce a series of speeches from key figures, including Kaiser Wilhelm II and other prominent leaders, outlining their reasons for war and depicting a defensive posture against perceived aggressors. The initial arguments articulate the tense political climate of the time, with Germany and Austria-Hungary seeking to justify their military actions against the backdrop of rising nationalism and political intrigue in Europe, effectively laying the groundwork for the complex narrative that would unfold in the chapters to come.
