"Germany's Fighting Machine" by Ernest F. Henderson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides an in-depth examination of the German military, including its army, navy, and air forces, as well as the broader context of their preparations for World War I. The author aims to analyze why Germany had amassed such a formidable military force against the Allied Powers of Europe, especially in the wake of rising tensions leading to the war. The opening of the work describes Henderson’s experiences in Germany just before the outbreak of World War I, highlighting the rapid shift from admiration for Germany's achievements to the grim realization of an impending conflict. The author discusses the historical context leading up to the war, analyzing news reports and public sentiment in Germany regarding Russia's military preparations and the Franco-Russian alliance. He paints a vivid picture of the escalating tensions and the political dynamics of the time, foreshadowing the war’s outbreak and setting the stage for a detailed exploration of the German military capabilities that follow in the subsequent parts of the book.
