To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An arrangement, as foreshadowed by the Imperial Chancellor (pp. 20, 24), embodying a general political formula, might be considered, more comprehensive, far-reaching, and intimate than any arrangement, short of actual alliance, that England had with any other Power ; and such an arrangement, therefore, might cause misunderstandino^ in France and Russia. The British agreements with France and wdth Russia were not based on a general political formula ; they w^ere settlements of specific questions... ; and the settle- ments had transformed relations of friction and pin- pricks into friendship. There was nothing exclusive in those friendships, and the British Government had seen with satisfaction the settlement of some ques- tions between France and Germany, and between Russia and Germany. Why should not something of the same kind be attempted between England and Germany ? The reply of the German Government (May, 1911) to these suggestions seemed not unfavourable, though the withdrawal of the previous naval offer (see (l), above), w^as discouraging.
