by Desiderius Erasmus
Publisher: The Merrymount Press 1907
ISBN/ASIN: 1480227463
Number of pages: 72
Description:
War was shocking to Erasmus alike on every side of his remarkably complex and sensitive nature. It was impious; it was inhuman; it was ugly; it was in every sense of the word barbarous, to one who before all things and in the full sense of the word was civilized and a lover of civilization.
