Produktbeschreibung

On the eve of America's entry into World War II, a fierce debate raged among religious leaders over the United States's participation in the war. In The End of Illusions, Joseph Loconte brings together pieces from the most significant religious thinkers of the day about the responsibilites of America and Europe in the face of Nazi agressions. As America faces a new war on terror, the arguments from half a century ago resonate with renewed passion, clarity, and poignancy.
