| Description | In this short typescript Taylor Cadbury considers Belgium's defence strategy in the event of German invasion in 1914, suggesting that the intention had been for Belgian forces to 'delay the German advance and to give the Allied Armies time to come to the rescue'. Taylor Cadbury examines the losses incurred by Belgium in their fight against Germany and the reasons why Belgium was not assisted earlier owing to a lack of preparation by their French and English allies. She refers specifically to the capturing of Antwerp and 'the heroic conduct of the Belgian King'. |
