A propos du livre

Revue de presse

ONE OF POPMATTERS' BEST NON-FICTION BOOKS OF 2014

ONE OF BLEEDING COOL'S TOP 11 GRAPHIC NOVELS OF 2014

'This anthology you have in your hands is an important one because comics are one of the few media voices the establishment has yet to muzzle... I found these stories heartfelt, passionate, clever, controversial, thought-provoking, original and often crying out for sequels.' -- - Pat Mills, writer of Charley's War

'This fascinating, wide-ranging anthology challenges any revisionist glorifying of heroic sacrifice.' -- - Paul Gravett, The Independent

To End All Wars is not just worthy (some of the proceeds from each book go to Médecins Sans Frontières), but enjoyable and illuminating too.' - --James Smart, The Guardian

'This wealth of voices is also a great strength: To End All Wars is not just worthy (some of the proceeds from each book go to Médecins Sans Frontières), but enjoyable and illuminating too.' - --The Guardian

'This stark, chiaroscuro, thick compilation begins to redress this deficit. It promotes a humanitarian view of the worldwide conflict as witnessed by not only famous and everyday men and women, but also by a diligent elephant, hounds, purported angels, and an Alpine cat.' - Best Books of 2014 as chosen by Pop Matters

'A remarkably well-chosen and commissioned set of pieces that complement each other without repetition, without any story you want to skip. Quite, quite remarkable.' - --Bleeding Cool
