| Summary | "Prize Orations of the Intercollegiate Peace Association," edited by Stephen F. Weston, is a collection of orations written in the early 20th century. The book compiles prize-winning speeches from students advocating for peace in international relations, presenting their viewpoints on war and its impacts on society. The work reflects the growing interest and ideals among educated youth regarding the significance of justice, peaceful conflict resolution, and the abolition of war. The opening of the volume includes a foreword by Charles F. Thwing, who introduces the formation of the Intercollegiate Peace Association and emphasizes the necessity of instilling ideals of peace and nonviolence in the minds of students. It discusses the historical context of war compared to the ideals of peace that students champion, suggesting that education and moral responsibility are paramount in shaping future leaders. This establishes the groundwork for the orations that follow, which aim to inspire a movement toward global harmony and highlight the economic and social costs of militarism.
