Publisher's Synopsis
Seventh-Day Adventists In Time Of War is a book written by Francis McLellan Wilcox. The book explores the role of Seventh-Day Adventists during times of war, particularly during World War I and World War II. The author delves into the unique challenges faced by Adventists who were conscientious objectors, as their beliefs prohibited them from participating in warfare. Wilcox examines the various ways in which Adventists contributed to the war effort, including through medical and humanitarian aid, as well as through non-combatant service in the military. The book also explores the experiences of Adventists who were drafted into military service despite their objections, and the impact that this had on their faith and their communities. Overall, Seventh-Day Adventists In Time Of War provides a comprehensive and insightful look at the complex and often fraught relationship between religion and warfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
