Synopsis de l’éditeur
"Texas Observer" "BuzzFlash.com" "OpEdNews.com"
"Turns out strange bedfellows are common in the history of American anti-war sentiment, as evidenced in the new anthology "We Who Dared to Say No To War".... Together [Polner and Woods have] assembled almost two centuries' worth of writing condemning American military actions from the War of 1812 to more recent misadventures in the Middle East, while celebrating the fact that the noble cause of peace in this country has often attracted wildly opposing un-likes... Democracy and war, these pieces collectively suggest, may be the strangest, and worst, bedfellows of all."
"We stopped counting the number of wonderful advocates of peace in this book. It's like finally finding a kindred group of like minds with whom you can feel at home.... This is an anthology well worth the read. It might also help you feel that peace is a battle worth waging, so to speak."
"Read it and weep ... and cheer. Weep because we've been lied
