'When all criticisms are spent, it remains to express a debt of
gratitude to Mr. Angell. He belongs to the cause of
internationalism--the greatest of all the causes to which a man can
set his hands in these days. The cause will not triumph by
economics. But it cannot reject any ally. And if the economic
appeal is not final, it has its weight. "We shall perish of
hunger," it has been said, "in order to have success in murder." To
those who have ears for that saying, it cannot be said too
often.'--_Political Thought in England, from Herbert Spencer to the
Present Day_, by ERNEST BARKER.
'A wealth of closely reasoned argument which makes the book one of
the most damaging indictments that have yet appeared of the
principles governing the relation of civilized nations to one
another.'--_The Quarterly Review._
'Ranks its author with Cobden amongst the greatest of our
pamphleteers, perhaps the greatest since Swift.'--_The Nation._
'No book has attracted wider attention or has done more to
stimulate thought in the present century than _The Great
Illusion_.'--_The Daily Mail._
'One of the most brilliant contributions to the literature of
international relations which has appeared for a very long
time.'--_Journal of the Institute of Bankers._
'After five and a half years in the wilderness, Mr. Norman Angell
has come back.... His book provoked one of the great controversies
of this generation.... To-day, Mr. Angell, whether he likes it or
not, is a prophet whose prophesies have come true.... It is hardly
possible to open a current newspaper without the eye lighting on
some fresh vindication of the once despised and rejected doctrine
of Norman Angellism.'--_The Daily News_, February 25, 1920.
