The Great War Differed From All Ancient Wars In The Immense Power Of The Combatants And Their Fearful Agencies Of Destruction, And From All Modern Wars In The Utter Ruthlessness With Which It Was Fought... Europe And Large Parts Of Asia And Africa Became One Vast Battlefield On Which After Years Of Struggle Not Armies But Nations Broke And Ran. When All Was Over, Torture And Cannibalism Were The Only Two Expedients That The Civilized, Scientific, Christian States Had Been Able To Deny Themselves: And They Were Of Doubtful Utility.
