Description

This book summarises the work of several overseas authors on non-violence, celebrates the recent achievements of New Zealand's 'peace people' and points the way to a peaceful world. 86-year-old retired school teacher and author Will Foote has been an active member of the peace movement since attending Teachers' College in Christchurch in 1937-38. His beliefs resulted in his spending four war-time years in North Island detention camps. After re-admission to the teaching service he taught mainly in rural areas. In retirement in Nelson he was Secretary of the Nelson Peace Group for 16 years and he represented the Nelson-Marlborough area on the Executive Working Group of the national peace movement co-ordinating the organisation Peace Movement Aotearoa for eight years.
