The War That Will End War
H. G. Wells
Book Overview:
About the First World War, and the author's conclusions. Whether or not you agree with these articles/essays, H G Wells does make many valid points about the war, and it's effect on people, especially in Britain. I suppose he cannot be blamed for getting the concept and the title wrong, in hindsight, as there were barely 22 years to pass before the Second World War with Germany began. Wells highlights the corruption both in Britain and Germany during the terrible conflict, and the humanitarian price which had to be paid. He felt it his duty to keep people informed, at a time when only newspapers were available. It was a period, around 1914-1918, that pre-dated radio and TV, and the mass communication which is available to us all today. Historically I believe it stands as a testament to that period.

Bazı noktalarda doğru ve can alıcı tespitler olsa da, makalelerin genelinin yüzeyselliği ve havada kalması ile genel olarak hiçbir katkı vermeyen, tam tersine maalesef güldüren bir eser olmuş.
I decided to read this book after seeing it in the National World War I museum in Kansas City. This book is where the expression "the war to end all war" comes from. I found that intriguing. I took it out of our library and the coolest thing about it was that this book was bought by the library in D
Well, THAT didn't age well...
A series of essays from the opening seasons of World War I, this compiled book shows Wells to have been lamentably naive about (a) what nations go to war for, and (b) the power of the benevolent state as a force for good (forgetting, apparently, that the human beings who
Just an average book. The Author goes out of his field to take on Geo political politics and the theories of war. Like many people today who are in the entertainment industry that do the same thing, I think it’s better for them to stay in their own area.
Wells makes lots of predictions that were wron
H.G. Wells savaşı ve sonrasını naif ve iyi kalpli bir şekilde yorumluyor. Çoğu görüşü safça olsa da bazı güzel tespitleri var. Bu savaşı farklı bir bakış açısından görmek istiyorsanız bu kitap güzel bir tercih olacaktır.
