An Energy Field More Intense Than War: The Nonviolent Tradition and American LiteratureSyracuse University Press, 1995 - 169 pàgines Identifies a persistent subculture in North America that counters the dominant ideology of aggression by envisioning, proposing, and working towards nonviolent methods of solving conflict on both personal and social levels. Begins by surveying the pamphlets and other literature from the first two centuries of European settlement, then proceeds through the centuries through passive resistance, labor agitation, religious dissent, draft resistance, the civil rights movement, nuclear disarmament, anti- imperialism, and other strains.
