paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Objection Overruled: Conscription and Conscience in the First World War examines the experiences of conscientious objectors in Britain during WWI and the fierce debates surrounding compulsory military service. The book explores how individuals from diverse political, religious, and moral backgrounds resisted conscription, the legal mechanisms used to challenge their claims, and the often harsh treatment they faced in tribunals, prisons, and public opinion. Drawing on archival records, personal testimonies, and contemporary commentary, it offers a detailed portrait of a society grappling with the tension between national duty and personal conscience. Insightful and meticulously researched, itâs an important study for readers interested in military history, civil liberties, and the human cost of wartime policy. Photograph available on request.
