First published in “The Atlantic Monthly” in 1919, this article represents the initial efforts of “League of Free Nations Association”—the precursor to the League of Nations—to assess and solve the principal problems of Universal Peace. Among those who collaborated on this paper is are H. G. Wells, H. Wickham Steed, Viscount Grey, Gilbert Murray, Lionel Curtis, and J. A. Spender, among others. Highly recommended for those with an interest in modern world history and the formation of the League of Nations. Herbert George Wells (1866 – 1946) was a prolific English writer who wrote in a variety of genres, including the novel, politics, history, and social commentary. Today, he is perhaps best remembered for his contributions to the science fiction genre thanks to such novels as “The Time Machine” (1895), “The Invisible Man” (1897), and “The War of the Worlds” (1898). "The Father of Science Fiction" was also a staunch socialist, and his later works are increasingly political and didactic. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction.
