The importance of honor is present in the earliest records of
civilization. Today, while it may still be an essential concept in
Islamic cultures, in the West, honor has been disparaged and
dismissed as obsolete. In this lively and authoritative book, James
Bowman traces the curious and fascinating history of this ideal,
from the Middle Ages through the Enlightenment and to the killing
fields of World War I and the despair of Vietnam. Bowman reminds us
that the fate of honor and the fate of morality and even manners
are deeply interrelated.
