Behind The Scenes With The Kaiser 1888 1892 PDF Download

Excerpt from Behind the Scenes With the Kaiser (1888-1922), Vol. 2: The True Story of the Kaiser as He Lived, Loved, Played and Warred If the tour or outing on which they were about to enter had been under consideration for some time, a printed itinerary was furnished to the chief of each department, but quite frequently no one was able to learn anything beyond the hour of departure. The Kaiser, you know, addressed his attendants only in monosyllables, and did not even take the trouble to speak distinctly. To ask repetition of a sentence, or to put any question whatever, would have been an unheard-of breach of etiquette, so nothing remained to do but to take chances and work ahead in the dark, the more so, as the adjutants often knew no more of his Majesty's intentions than the small stableboys who went with every imperial party to assist at tennis. Especial secrecy was observed if the destination was some town or fortress in the far west or east of the Empire, where, after a night of travel, the war-lord intended to mount at five or six o'clock in the morning, and, attended by trumpeters and a formidable suite, ride through the streets alarming the garrison.
