Excerpt from The New Map of Europe (1911-1914): The Story of the Recent European Diplomatic Crises and Wars and of Europe's Present Catastrophe ON a July day in 1908, two American students, who had chosen to spend the first days of their honeymoon in digging the musty pamphleteers of the figure out of the Bodleian Library, were walking along the High Street in Oxford, when their attention was arrested by the cry of a newsboy. A halfpenny invested in a London newspaper gave them the news that Niazi bey had taken to the Macedonian Highlands, and that a revolution was threatening to overthrow the Absolutist régime of Abdul Hamid. The Sixteenth century was forgotten in the absorbing and compelling interest of the twentieth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
