To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We did not enter into this war in that spirit. W^e knew the great resources she possessed, and we did everything in owe power to ensure success. ' It is true that I have heard a criti- cism made by some military men upon the whole proceeding. They say, — you have sent out more men than you can well main- tain, you have sent out what you will find it difficult to feed : it is much more than you can manage. That was the difficulty I spoke of before — of making a great start in the first year of t...he war. It is a difficulty which you have to encounter when you have to make an army at the same time that you are to use it. Recollect this — we have few well-seasoned soldiers in this country. See the difficulties we have had to encounter. We have no conscription in England ; we have no compulsory service whatever ( 23 ) in England, except for internal defence ; we have to trust entirely to the voluntary system. You cannot make an army as other nations may. You cannot make an army by a stroke of the pen, or by an ukase raise 100, 000 soldiers.
