Abstract: Many German publications have discussed the colonial settlement of the Treaty of Versailles but they have not won the endorsement of an Englishman. T h i s book, therefore, attracts unusual attention and offers two reasons to justify the subtitle: its author, a former Governor of German Samoa and East Africa and the editor of the Deutsche: Kolonial-Lexiken ( 3 vets., Leipzig, 1920), combines a long and successful record as a colonial administrator with sound scholarship; and its sponsor is well known to the English-speaking public through his works on the German Empire as an impartial authority on that country. The Introduction defines the purpose o f writing: " t o show wherein Germany's reputation and success as a colonial power have been unjustly called in question, and to give reasons why the return to her of her colonies is an act both of duty and of necessity"
