Fighting the Lamb’s War

History & Biography

“I have been waiting for Phil Berrigan’s autobiography and it is a pleasure to read. His words have the direct, simple eloquence of his actions. He provokes and inspires, and dares to be critical of himself even as he recounts a life committed to peace, justice, and community.”

Nature's Unruly Mob

“Paul Gilk gives us a profound meditation, eloquent and provocative, on how so-called 'civilization' has driven us, not only from our roots in the land, but from our cultural and spiritual moorings. This is a rare and important book in the tradition of Henry David Thoreau and Lewis Mumford. While sobering in its description of our current reality, it is ultimately exhilarating and hopeful. It should be widely read.”

Swords Into Plowshares, Volume Two

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This book is an important contribution to the history of the peace movement in the U.S. It recounts the dramatic plowshares actions which, over the last twenty-three years, have kept alive the spirit of resistance to the arms race, and inspires us with the courage of all those who have gone to prison for their stand against the war makers . . . I hope it will be read by people all over the country to instruct and inspire them.”
