1. War Against War
The American Fight for Peace, 1914-1918
A concise political and social history of American opposition to involvement in World War I, tracing how a diverse coalition of pacifists, socialists, religious leaders and women’s activists organized against U.S. entry into the conflict, and how rising patriotic fervor, censorship, surveillance, and laws such as the Espionage and Sedition Acts — together with prosecutions and mob pressure — crushed much dissent, altered the careers of prominent activists, and reshaped debates about civil liberties, immigration, and the meaning of patriotism in the postwar United States.
