註釋
Vera Brittain unquestionably qualified. Pacifism in a time of peace may be relatively easy; in time of war it comes at great personal cost. She never wavered, but was at all times hugely concerned for those who suffer as a result of war, the overwhelming majority of whom, on all sides, are blameless with respect to the causes of the war. Testament of Youth, covering her experiences before, during and in the aftermath of the First World War, left us in no doubt of the pacifism that she was to carry through the rest of her life, and of the reasoning that led an intelligent and articulate young woman to adopt that stance. Testament of Experience takes that forward through the years of depression, the rise of Nazism, appeasement, the Second World War, and the first years of the Cold War.
