''The Justification of War: As the Medium of Civilization'' is a book written by George Stephens in 1850. The book explores the idea that war is not only a necessary evil, but also a means by which civilization advances. Stephens argues that war has played a crucial role in the development of human societies, and that it is through conflict that nations and cultures have been able to progress and evolve. He examines various historical examples, including the wars of ancient Greece and Rome, the Crusades, and the Napoleonic Wars, to illustrate his point. The book also delves into the ethics of war, exploring questions of morality and justice. Overall, ''The Justification of War'' is a thought-provoking and insightful work that offers a unique perspective on the role of conflict in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
