America is at war with terrorism. Terrorists must be brought to justice. We hear these phrases together so often that we rarely pause to reflect on the dramatic differences between the demands of war and the demands of justice, differences so deep that the pursuit of one often comes at the expense of the other. In this book, one of the country's most important legal thinkers brings much-needed clarity to the still unfolding debates about how to pursue war and justice in the age of terrorism. George Fletcher also draws on his rare ability to combine insights from history, philosophy, literature, and law to place these debates in a rich cultural context. He seeks to explain why Americans--for so many years cynical about war--have recently found war so appealing. He finds the answer in a revival of Romanticism, a growing desire in the post-Vietnam era to identify with grand causes and to put nations at the center of ideas about glory and guilt. Fletcher opens with unsettling questions about the nature of terrorism, war, and justice, showing how dangerously slippery the concepts can be. He argues that those sympathetic to war are heirs to the ideals of Byron, Fichte, and other Romantics in their belief that nations--not just individuals--must uphold honor and be held accountable for crimes. Fletcher writes that ideas about collective glory and guilt are far more plausible and widespread than liberal individualists typically recognize. But as he traces the implications of the Romantic mindset for debates about war crimes, treason, military tribunals, and genocide, he also shows that losing oneself in a grand cause can all too easily lead to moral catastrophe. A work of extraordinary intellectual power and relevance, the book will change how we think not only about world events, but about the conflicting individualist and collective impulses that tear at all of us.

Summer 1940. All of Britain is swept up in the war effort. But Prudence Clearwater longs to be swept up into something very different. What she does not know is that the discovery of an old letter in the dusty archives of her workplace will pull her into the love story that she always dreamed of. Prudence is forced to think about her future when her fiancé seeks to speed their wedding day. Why is her heart so reluctant? Does her future hold some hidden secrets she is not yet aware of? Frederick Spencer is an engineer who deals in facts and figures. His work is so important to him, and to King and Country, that he has avoided conscription into the Armed Forces. But when his eccentric aunt drags him into a hare-brained scheme to find a man whom she jilted four decades ago, Frederick is compelled to help her. In times of war, can people follow their own paths? Will Prudence find the courage to write her own story, and will Frederick learn that there is more to life than duty? In this debut World War two drama, love and war meet in a sweet and emotional embrace!

London – 1940 As German bombs rain down upon the city of London, Emma Bradley hastily packs a suitcase, cradles her newborn son in her arms, and boards a train with two evacuee children she’s agreed to chaperone in exchange for a job in the south of England. Although she’s only one of thousands leaving the city, Emma is fleeing more than the horrors of war. Her greatest fear is that the father of her child will track her down and exact revenge for what she’s stolen from him. World renowned Dutch concert pianist Andrej Van der Hoosen is a man who cherishes his privacy above all else. His wealth and privilege have afforded him the luxury of avoiding being around children because of a painful loss from his own past. So, when he meets the woman and children he’ll reside with for the duration of the war, he’s instantly on guard. The children are boisterous and full of life, the cottage they’re assigned to live in is small, and he finds himself intrigued by the secret Emma is so clearly trying to hide. Despite their reluctance to trust each other, Emma and Andrej soon find themselves drawn together in a world torn apart by war.
