Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mennonites in the World War: Or Nonresistance Under Test As many have undertaken to write the history of the recent World War and the issues involved, it seemed good to some that we also should write upon that phase of it Which most vitally affects nonresistant people, especially the Mennonites of America. Among the first to suggest such a work was J. S. Hartzler, the principal writer of this volume. As one of those who were actively engaged in looking after the welfare of our young men who for conscience sake could have no part in carnal war fare, he with others felt that there should be a careful writeup of events, a clear statement of issues involved, and a record kept of what our nonresistant people did to meet the problems arising from the war. After one of his trips to the camps he gave expression to his convictions in this matter. The proposed book was thoroughly discussed from every angle, and all who expressed themselves gave voice to the conviction that it should be written. But who to write the book was the question. Most of those who had given the problems arising from the war the most serious attention were encumbered with other duties and therefore not in position to undertake the work. Brother Hartzler was finally chosen to write the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
