OverviewOn 15 February 2003, an estimated two million Britons took to the streets of London to protest against the war in Iraq. Since the outbreak of that tragic conflict, the anti-war movement has broadened and now has a global reach. Not all protesters would consider themselves pacifists - against all wars and violence - but whatever the basis of objection, their protest is part of one of the most enduring movements in history. Based on 200 personal testimonies from the Imperial War Museum Collections, this landmark book tells the stories of those who participated in protest - from the Great War of 1914 18, through to the Second World War, the Cold War and up to the present day. Voices Against War is a compelling, emotional and very moving human story, essential for understanding war in its entirety.
