The American Peace Crusade, 1815-1860 is a historical book written by Curti, Merle Eugene that explores the peace movement in America during the first half of the 19th century. The book delves into the various factors that led to the emergence of the peace movement, including the aftermath of the War of 1812, the rise of religious pacifism, and the growth of the abolitionist movement. Curti examines the key figures involved in the peace movement, such as William Ladd, Elihu Burritt, and David Low Dodge, and their efforts to promote peace through education, diplomacy, and international cooperation. The book also highlights the role of women in the peace movement, particularly in the establishment of peace societies and the promotion of anti-war sentiment.Throughout the book, Curti analyzes the impact of the peace movement on American society and politics, including its influence on foreign policy and the debate over slavery. He also explores the challenges faced by the peace movement, such as the outbreak of the Mexican-American War and the increasing tensions leading up to the Civil War.Overall, The American Peace Crusade, 1815-1860 provides a comprehensive and insightful examination of the peace movement in America during a crucial period in the nation's history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
