whole: the image occupies the upper left, upper centre and upper right, and is held within a brown border. The title is
separate and positioned along the top edge, in black. The text is separate and occupies the remainder, in black. All set against a white
background.
image: a depiction of a mother and father, sitting with their baby in a field. Unbeknownst to them, three German soldiers, one of whom is
armed with a bayonet, hide behind the tree next to them. The Germans' appearance is distorted to make them look slightly
ghoulish.

par ETIENNE GIRAN
TEXTES ALLEMANDS ET DESSINS INÉDITS
DE Louis RAEMAEKERS
60 pages de texte 60 dessins de Louis RAEMAEKERS
DEVANT L'HISTOIRE est le livre le plus évocateur et le plus irréfutable qu'on ait publié sur les causes profondes de la guerre.
DEVANT L'HISTOIRE contient, sous le plus petit volume, le plus grand nombre d'indiscutables documents.
DEVANT L'HISTOIRE illustré par le maître hollandais, Louis RAEMAEKERS, restera comme un des albums les plus originaux, les plus artistiques
de la guerre.
DEVANT L'HISTOIRE constitue:
la réponse la plus autorisée, la plus directe, la plus convaincante aux propagandistes boches de l'intérieur et de l'extérieur;
la preuve la plus irréfutable du plan infernal d'aggression, médité depuis plus d'un demi-siècle par les conducteurs du peuple allemand;
la plus éclatante démonstration de la bonne foi des Alliés, de leur volonté de paix et de leur résolution d'éviter cette monstrueuse guerre;
le plus impressionant, le plus stupéfiant faisceau de témoignages irrécusables et d'aveux concluants, puisés aux sources mêmes de
l'aggresseur.
