 • 'a Life For Peace'
26 December, 2003

Bertha von Suttner is little known in the United States. Despite the fact she won the Nobel Peace Prize - and was the first woman - she is often overlooked. This book helps to inform those who read it about how she was instrumental in having the Nobel Peace Prize created.Born into Austrian nobility, Bertha von Suttner saw firsthand the military buildup in Europe during the decades preceding World War I. She and her husband, Baron Arthur von Suttner, worked tirelessly for the cause of peace in Europe. Her close friendship with the inventor Alfred Nobel helped to establish a strong structure to the peace movement, with the annual awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize.This book is an excellent reference to Baroness Bertha von Suttner's life. Syracuse University did our society a great service in publishing the book in English.
