Publisher Synopsis
"'Peter Brock is a historian's historian; that is, his is concerned with the historiography of his approach as well as his findings. He has long been, and now clearly remains, the premier historian of conscientious objection not only in his main areas of concentration, which are impressive in their number (E. Europe, Holland, Britain, the US) but, by extension, for the whole field of war resistance.' - Michael Nagler, Department of Peace and Conflict Studies, University of California at Berkeley" Read more...
