Title: Voices against war
Description: On 15 February 2003, an estimated two million Britons took to the streets of London to protest against war in Iraq. Since the outbreak of that conflict, the anti-war movement now has global reach. Not all protesters would consider themselves pacifists but their protest is part of one of the most enduring movements in history. Based on nearly 200 personal testimonies from the Imperial War Museum Collections, this book tells the stories of those who participated in anit-war protest - from the Great War through to the Second World War, the Cold War and up to the present day. This includes the Falkland Islands invasion in the early 1980s, the first Gulf War and the ongoing conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
