    “The book entitled ‘THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BLACK BOOK’ deals with a subject as vital as it ispainful. . . . There is no doubt that English society was inclined before the war, and may be inclined even now, to play fast and loose with morality. Attacks, not veiled but open, upon the purity of home life and the sanctity of marriage had come to be alarmingly frequent. Still more serious, because more insidious, was the disposition to palliate or extenuate violations of the moral law. But whoever aims at sapping foundations of morality is an enemy of his country.” THE RT. HON. SIR GILBERT PARKER says: *] consider‘ THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BLACK BOOK’ a publication of very great importance. . . . It should be read by all who are interested in knowing the origin of Hun cruelty and lust and malevolence.”
