A war hero who refused to fight, students who stood up to Hitler, a ship that sailed into a nuclear test zone, a whole town which practiced non-violence. Peace Warriors tells the dramatic stories of people who chose non-violent resistance in times of conflict; stories of young men and women from New Zealand and around the world.

Young readers will discover that peaceful resistance can be as effective as military force, and that people power can change history.

*A compelling, empowering book, which is both an absorbing read and an affirmation of human decency. I’m usually reluctant to use the word ‘inspiring’, but these stories of courage, endurance and fidelity from all around the world totally deserve that accolade. *David Hill

For readers over ten years, with colour images, discussion pages and useful links to other resources.

Will be enjoyed by readers and classes with an interest in:

World and NZ history
Non-violence
Civil rights
Politics
War

50% of royalties from the sale of this book go to Oxfam.
