Reading Lay Down Your Arms | Alexandria
Read Lay Down Your Arms by Bertha von Suttner. Discovering a woman's raw account of war's futility in 1889 shattered conventional thinking. Bertha von Suttner's "Lay Down Your Arms" exposed warfare's senseless destruction through a widow's eyes - years before WWI proved her right. Her radical notion that peace requires active effort, not just avoiding conflict, sparked the modern anti-war movement.
