Century of War by Gabriel Kolko

Over the last three decades the historian Gabriel Kolko has redefined the way we look at modern warfare and its social and political effects. Century of War gives us a masterly synthesis of the effects of war on civilian populations and the political results of these traumatizing experiences in the twentieth century.
"Gabriel Kolko [is] the foremost modern historian of war and its political consequences" —John Gittings, The Guardian

"The totality of his argument is persuasive. I hope that many leaders and formers of public opinion will take the trouble to read this book, as it makes a crucial contribution to thinking about the readiness of war and its aftermath." —Toronto Globe & Mail

Gabriel Kolko (1932–2014) was Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus at York University in Toronto. He was the author of Anatomy of War, Century of War, and Another Century of War?, all available from The New Press.
