While Baptists through the years have been certain that "war is
hell", they have not always been able to agree on how to respond to
it. This book traces much of this troubled relationship from the
days of Baptist origins with close ties to pacifist Anabaptists to
the responses of Baptists in America to the Vietnam War. Essays
also include discussions of the English Baptist Andrew Fuller's
response to the threat of Napoleon, how Baptists in America dealt
with the War of 1812, the support of Canadian Baptists for
Britain's war in Sudan and Abyssinia in the 1880s, the decisive
effect of the First World War on Canada's T.T. Shields, the
response of Australian Baptists to the Second World War, and how
Russian Baptists dealt with the Cold War. These chapters provide
important analyses of Baptist reactions to various manifestations
of one of society's most intractable problems.
