About this title

Synopsis

End the sword's reign: a thoughtful plea for peace rooted in Christian ethics

This introduction to a 19th‑century work argues that war is a harmful, popular delusion and asks how society might abolish it.

It blends moral critique with practical steps, showing how nations could reduce conflict without surrendering security.

The author treats war as a social issue, not just policy. By examining history, religious teachings, and public opinion, the book invites readers to question familiar justifications for warfare and to imagine a more peaceful world.

Clear, provocative arguments that war is a destructive, preventable evil
Connections between faith, humanity, and public policy in the pursuit of peace
Suggestions for educating and organizing communities toward nonviolent solutions
Reflection on how social reform and moral courage can curb armed conflict

Ideal for readers interested in history, religion, and social reform who seek thoughtful perspectives on peace and the abolition of war.
