Excerpt from The Slav Nations The task of writing a book on the subject of the Slav nations has afforded me very great pleasure, and I hope my work will succeed in its object and arouse the sympathies of the British public for my race. In preference to giving long disquisitions, I have purposely adopted a simple narrative tone in sketching some of the most interesting points in the national life of the Slav peoples. I have only touched upon historical events in so far as this was necessary for the context, and owing to lack of space I have been unable to do more than allude to Slav art and literature. On the other hand, a good deal of valuable information on this subject will be found in the epilogue "Buried Treasures," which the eminent Serbo-Croat essayist, Mr. Dimitrij Mitrinovic has kindly placed at my disposal.

Excerpt from Historical Paintings of the Slavic Nations During Mucha's sojourn in Munich, which lasted some two years, he was a joyous, picturesque member of the Czech colony of the day which included such well-known figures as Vacha, Brozik, and Marolda. This auspicious interlude was, however, followed by a sharper contact with reality and the bitter sting of poverty, for shortly after his arrival in Paris in 1887, Count Khuen ceased his patronage, and the young man was thrown upon his own resources, with the added handicap of an imperfect knowledge of the French language. He lived for a time in the impasse du Maine, and later in the rue de la Grande Chaumiere, dreaming resplendent dreams of success and renown, and meantime supporting himself upon the meagre income he derived from book and magazine illustration.

Excerpt from The Slavs: Past and Present Poland). Some of them, starting from that original seat, went south and Occupied what is now Hungary and thence went far into the Balkan peninsula. Others went west, far beyond the territory in which stands Berlin - no Germans were there at that and east. The original Slavs were, Of course, not a civilized group of tribes. They were barbarians, just as their west ern neighbors, the Germans, were. The Germans occupied the Roman Empire, destroyed it, took over some rudiments of what they allowed to survive of Roman civilization, and at the same time began to press the Slavs back. They sub dued the outlying Slav countries and turned the population mostly into slaves. Then a German Roman Empire was created, and on its eastern outskirts were formed marches with the special object of fighting the Slavs. On the other hand, from Scandinavia the Vikings were making their way into Russia, while from the east Mongolic invaders, Bulgars and Magyars (the modern Hungarians) were at tacking the southern Slavs, the Magyars conquering Hun gary while the Bulgars subdued some of the Balkan Slavs (seventh century The Magyars extirpated some of the Slavs they conquered and turned others into a subject population (ninth and tenth centuries While those unfortunate victims have kept their Slavic tongue, the Mag yars have stuck to their own language, which they still speak today. The Bulgars accepted the language of the conquered tribes and both groups came finally to form one nation partly of Mongolic, partly of Slavic, descent, but speaking a Slav tongue. Similar was the history of the Vikings in Russia. They organized the country into what we might call a political unit (ninth century). The organ ization was Norse, the bulk of the people Slavic, the lan guage of the whole was Slavic - Russian.
