Reading edition
Johnston, op. cit., pp. 50–51, 61. Sir Harry Johnston made an extended lecture tour through Germany during 1912 for the purpose of promoting Anglo-German friendship. For details of this trip see Schmitt, op. cit., pp. 355–356. It is interesting to note how nearly Sir Harry’s proposals corresponded with the terms of the treaties of 1913–1914. Infra, Chapter X. For a similar point of view, cf. Angus Hamilton, Problems of the Middle East (London, 1909), pp. 178–180.
