Summary

One of the great classics of anti-militarism--originally published in 1907 and immediately banned.

Author Biography

Karl Liebknecht was a leader of the German Social Democratic Party. When-this book was published Liebknecht was tried and found guilty of high treason. The book was confiscated arid an order given to destroy the plates from which it had been printed. Later, as a member of die German Reichstag, Liebknecht again agitated against militarism and refused to support the First World War; he was punished by being drafted into the army. In 1916 he was arrested for "attempted-treason" and "aggravated disobedience." His crime was to have addressed a demonstration, in full military uniform (since he was still in the army), with these words: "Our enemies are not the English, French or Russian workers, but the German landed proprietors, the German capitalists and their executive committee, the government."
