About this book

A sixpenny pamphlet of 1923, International Thought carried John Galsworthy's case that nations need to share their thinking. He starts from the disenchantment the war brought to those who, until 1914, had believed that people would behave civilly to one another, and takes a line from Thomas Hardy about the exchange of international thought as his guide.

He then surveys the channels that exist for it: the League of Nations, the Permanent Court of International Justice, the Pan-American Congress and the newly founded P.E.N. Club of writers. All profit from the sale went to the League of Nations Union.
