{"product_id":"2940013414815","title":"CHRISTINE","description":"CHRISTINE\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMy daughter Christine, who wrote me these letters, died at a hospital\u003cbr\u003ein Stuttgart on the morning of August 8th, 1914, of acute double\u003cbr\u003epneumonia. I have kept the letters private for nearly three years,\u003cbr\u003ebecause, apart from the love in them that made them sacred things in\u003cbr\u003edays when we each still hoarded what we had of good, they seemed to me,\u003cbr\u003ewho did not know the Germans and thought of them, as most people in\u003cbr\u003eEngland for a long while thought, without any bitterness and with a\u003cbr\u003egreat inclination to explain away and excuse, too extreme and sweeping\u003cbr\u003ein their judgments.  Now, as the years have passed, and each has been\u003cbr\u003emore full of actions on Germany's part difficult to explain except in\u003cbr\u003eone way and impossible to excuse, I feel that these letters, giving a\u003cbr\u003epicture of the state of mind of the German public immediately before\u003cbr\u003ethe War, and written by some one who went there enthusiastically ready\u003cbr\u003eto like everything and everybody, may have a certain value in helping\u003cbr\u003eto put together a small corner of the great picture of Germany which it\u003cbr\u003ewill be necessary to keep clear and naked before us in the future if\u003cbr\u003ethe world is to be saved.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47082674454768,"sku":"2940013414815","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013414815_p0.jpg?v=1763580937","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013414815","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
