The Menace of the Mob (Classic Reprint)

To say that the world to-day is passing through the most crucial period of all history is, of course, a commonplace; but the fact will, none the less, bear constant reiteration. Everything is seething and in a turmoil; there are wars and rumors of wars; the world is ill and bewildered. Yet, though there are many men crying in this wilderness how many are there who are true prophets; and how many of these are not merely crying, but also pointing a way out of the wilderness? It is little short of astonishing to see how many of the warnings in The Menace of the Mob have come true. There is scarce a line where a pin would not prick upon a prophecy fulfilled. A nd, were we to use it as a volume for sortes there is scarce a line that is not pregnant with other forewarnings, still more dire. There shall be a slaughter the like of which has never been before to which the Great World War is, perhaps, as but the blossom to the fruit.
