Blocking New Wars is a book written by Herbert Sherman Houston in 1918. The book focuses on the prevention of future wars and highlights the importance of international cooperation and diplomacy. Houston argues that the root causes of war are often economic and political, and that by addressing these issues, nations can avoid conflict. He also emphasizes the need for disarmament and the establishment of an international court to settle disputes. The book provides a historical perspective on the causes and consequences of war, drawing on examples from World War I and earlier conflicts. Houston's ideas were ahead of his time and continue to be relevant today, as the world continues to grapple with the threat of war and the need for global cooperation. Overall, Blocking New Wars is a thought-provoking and insightful read for anyone interested in international relations and peacekeeping efforts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
