"[A] brilliant new book . . . Humane provides a powerful intellectual history of the American way of war. It is a bold departure from decades of historiography dominated by interventionist bromides." —Jackson Lears, The New York Review of Books A prominent historian exposes the dark side of making war more humane In the years since 9/11, we have entered an age of endless war. With little debate or discussion, the United States carries out military operations around the globe. It hardly matters who’s president or whether liberals or conservatives operate the levers of power. The United States exercises dominion everywhere. In Humane: How the United States Abandoned Peace and Reinvented War, Samuel Moyn asks a troubling but urgent question: What if efforts to make war more ethical—to ban torture and limit civilian casualties—have only shored up the military enterprise and made it sturdier? To advance this case, Moyn looks back at a century and a half of passionate arguments about the ethics of using force. In the nineteenth century, the founders of the Red Cross struggled mightily to make war less lethal even as they acknowledged its inevitability. Leo Tolstoy prominently opposed their efforts, reasoning that war needed to be abolished, not reformed—and over the subsequent century, a popular movement to abolish war flourished on both sides of the Atlantic. Eventually, however, reformers shifted their attention from opposing the crime of war to opposing war crimes, with fateful consequences. The ramifications of this shift became apparent in the post-9/11 era. By that time, the US military had embraced the agenda of humane war, driven both by the availability of precision weaponry and the need to protect its image. The battle shifted from the streets to the courtroom, where the tactics of the war on terror were litigated but its foundational assumptions went without serious challenge. These trends only accelerated during the Obama and Trump presidencies. Even as the two administrations spoke of American power and morality in radically different tones, they ushered in the second decade of the “forever” war. Humane is the story of how America went off to fight and never came back, and how armed combat was transformed from an imperfect tool for resolving disputes into an integral component of the modern condition. As American wars have become more humane, they have also become endless. This provocative book argues that this development might not represent progress at all.

Excerpt from The Humane Review, Vol. 7: April, 1906, to January, 1907 February 23, 1899. - Time, one hour, fifty minutes. A very good hunt, since scent was only fair, and we were especially unlucky to lose this hare, which was beat when she got back to Salt Hill. On the next day we heard that our hare had crawled up the High Street to Bumbam, and entered a public-house so done that it could not stand, and was caught by some boys, who came to tell us half an hour after wards, but we had just gone home. Too bad luck for words l And so on, with repeated references to breaking her up, and hounds thoroughly deserving blood.

In this eloquent plea for compassion and respect for all species, journalist and gardener Nancy Lawson describes why and how to welcome wildlife to our backyards. Through engaging anecdotes and inspired advice, profiles of home gardeners throughout the country, and interviews with scientists and horticulturalists, Lawson applies the broader lessons of ecology to our own outdoor spaces. Detailed chapters address planting for wildlife by choosing native species; providing habitats that shelter baby animals, as well as birds, bees, and butterflies; creating safe zones in the garden; cohabiting with creatures often regarded as pests; letting nature be your garden designer; and encouraging natural processes and evolution in the garden. The Humane Gardener fills a unique niche in describing simple principles for both attracting wildlife and peacefully resolving conflicts with all the creatures that share our world.

Excerpt from The Humane Review, 1901 To this may be added a statement several times made to me last year in South Africa, namely, that there was no provision whatever for the feeding or watering of the horses between the times of their entering and their leaving the train. It seemed incredible; but I had the assurance given me at two up country junctions in Cape Colony, and at Glencoe Junction in Natal. At the last place I was told by a station official that a train load of remounts, then standing there, would remain all night without their being either fed or watered, though they had had nothing since leaving Durban. And the way in which the horses in these trains constantly gnawed the waggons seemed to corroborate the statement. It is a matter of recent military history, further, that when the head of the cavalry commissariat was changed last year his first act was to double the horse-ration all round, thereby admitting the truth of the assertion of an occasional military correspondent of the Times, that the majority of the horses which had been lost up to that point had died of semi-starvation. Oxen, naturally, fare no better than horses. From a transport officer in Natal I learned that in the division to which he was attached, the weekly death-rate of the trek-oxen was about sixty, and that every road in the Transvaal had been lined with their rotting carcases. And during General F tench's march from Machadodorp to Ermelo in October last. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
