The Great Crime And Its Moral (1917)

By John Selden Willmore

Book Overview

The Great Crime And Its Moral (1917) is a book written by John Selden Willmore that explores the concept of war and its impact on society. The author argues that war is a great crime against humanity, and that it is morally wrong to engage in such acts of violence. Willmore examines the causes of war, including economic, political, and social factors, and discusses the consequences of war, such as the destruction of property, loss of life, and the psychological trauma inflicted on soldiers and civilians alike. The author also explores the moral implications of war, questioning whether it is ever justifiable to engage in such violence. Willmore draws on historical examples to illustrate his arguments, including the First World War, which was raging at the time of the book's publication. The Great Crime And Its Moral is a thought-provoking and insightful examination of the ethics of war, and remains relevant to contemporary debates about conflict and violence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
