Synopsis
Excerpt from Elements of Military Art and Science: Or, Course of Instruction in Strategy, Fortification, Tactics of Battles, &E; Embracing the Duties of Staff, Infantry, Cavalry, Artillery, and Engineers
All modern ethical writers regard unjust war as not only immoral, but as one of the greatest of crimes - murder on alarge scale. Such are all wars of mere ambition, eu gaged in for the purpose of extending regal power or national sovereignty; wars of plunder, carried on from mercenary motives; wars of propagandism, undertaken for the unrighteous end of compelling men to adopt certain religious or political opinions, whether from the alleged motives of introducing a more orthodox religion, or of extending the area of freedom. Such wars are held in just abhorrence by all moral and religious people: and this is believed to be the settled conviction of the great mass of our own citizens.
