The Quest for Peace Since the World War

Harvard University Press has partnered with De Gruyter to make available for sale worldwide virtually all in-copyright HUP books that had become unavailable since their original publication. The 2,800 titles in the “e-ditions” program can be purchased individually as PDF eBooks or as hardcover reprint (“print-on-demand”) editions via the “Available from De Gruyter” link above. They are also available to institutions in ten separate subject-area packages that reflect the entire spectrum of the Press’s catalog. More about the E-ditions Program »

“We can turn with great profit today to The Quest for Peace... Dr. Rappard speaks usually as an eye witness, and he crams these chapters with a wealth of salient citations from documents and speeches. Only those who have labored through the piles of paper that the League has produced, and that Dr. Rappard has reduced to their grain, can appreciate how valuable these chapters are—and what labor they entailed.”—Clarence K. Streit, The Saturday Review of Literature

“[A] rewarding work... a tremendous piece of study and must certainly be used among the authoritative volumes on the history of the world’s first experiment toward international civilization.”—Washington, D.C., Sunday Star
