<p>First complete english translation of Bertha von Suttner's 'Die Barbarisierung der Luft' (1912) - a prophetic essay in which she surveys the (then) current thinking about aerial bombardment. Suttner urges the international community to renew the Hague Declarations of 1899 and 1907 on the Launching of Projectiles and Explosives from Balloons. She also exhorts her readers in the future to agitate against "the profanation of the firmament." Bertha von Suttner was a leader of the 19th century peace through law movement, and the first woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize (in 1905). She is credited with inspiring Nobel to create the prize. Beautiful limited edition with gold gilt papers, satin bookmark, colored illustrations, custom endpapers and embossed quote on back cover by Friedrich Schiller (in German). Foreword by Hope Elizabeth May and Introduction by Jeroen Vervliet. Published to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the International Court of Justice's Advisory Opinion on the Legality of the Threat or Use of Nuclear Weapons, and launched on July 4, 2017 at the Historic Reading Room in the Peace Palace Library, The Hague.</p>

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important                 historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to                 apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to                 sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and                 does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is                 culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally                 enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or                 missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the                 original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it                 back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with                 access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional                 imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that                 intended by the original publisher.
