"Lastly, it was my sacred duty to clear, as far as I was able, the memory of my King and brother who had been so grossly slandered. His whole life had been given to his country, and, in spite of what has been said to the contrary, it was only to save Greece from a great disaster, that made him keep her out of the war. As I shall explain in the pages that follow, his idea was to enter the war much later, when Greece, after putting her army in order—following on two hard Balkan campaigns—would have been able to hold her own against her two traditional foes. His ambition was to bring into the field a united Greece and not a nation split in two and weakened by internal conflicts. Such a Greece, united, refortified, and strong in the conviction of the right of the Allies’ cause, would have been a far more serious help to the Allies than the humbled Greece that followed the leadership of Mr. Venizelos».
