Synopsis

With words of wisdom by everyone from Socrates and Thomas Jefferson to Anne Frank, Alice Walker, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Bono, The Anti-War Quote Book features more than 250 inspiring and thought-provoking arguments for peace. Here's just a small sample:

On propaganda: 'The first casualty, when war comes, is truth.'—Hiram Johnson

On empires: 'Government is a tool, like a hammer. You can use a hammer to build with or you can use a hammer to destroy with.'—Molly Ivins

On victory: 'One is left with the horrible feeling that war settles nothing, that to win a war is as disastrous as to lose one.'—Agatha Christie

On peace: 'I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.'—Dwight D. Eisenhower

Featuring a big, bold graphic design, archival photographs of peace rallies, and images of classic protest posters from around the world, The Anti-War Quote Book is guaranteed to fuel conversations as the election of 2008 unfolds.
