THE GREAT SURPRISE

Reading edition

Moses II. leads his chosen people through the channel to the promised (Eng.) land

From a military or political or economic point of view one should look at the matter (the capture of Calais) with the eyes of Great Britain and define the Calais idea as a possibility for a seafaring continental power to conduct a war against Great Britain from the continental coast channel and with all military resources while holding open communication between the Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea.

Count von Reventlow. June, 1915.
