Anotace
'The War That Will End War' is a collection of thought-provoking esssays, in which H. G. Wells examines the causes and effects of the First World War. For the pacifist Wells, the First World War is an unredeemable atrocity, but he argues that it may be the only way to 'exorcise a world madness and end an age'. Wells states the goal of the war should be to avoid future wars through a fair peace treaty and a global 'Peace League'. It is interesting now to see which of Wells' unique prophecies were accurate or not, as an unsuccessful attempt was made to create peace after the First World War. This book was influential at the time and impressed U.S. President Woodrow Wilson, and it is still cited to this day about different wars. Well-balanced, passionate, and creative, 'The War That Will End War' is recommended for those interested in the First World War.
