World Revolution - the Plot Against Civilization Nesta H. Webster

PREFACE: Revolution is not the product of war, but a malady that a nation suffering from the after-effects of a war is most likely to develop, just as a man enfeebled by fatigue is more liable to contract disease than one who is in a state of perfect vigour. Yet this predisposing cause is by no means essential to the outbreak of revolutionary fever. The great French revolution was not immediately preceded by a war of any magnitude, and to the observant mind England in 1914 was as near to revolution as in 1919....... This early works on The World Revolution is a fascinating novel of the period and still an interesting read today and will appeal to any historian. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
