Review: The Law of Nations: An Introduction to the International Law of Peace

User Review  - John - Goodreads

A good primer on the subject. One of the few books that I had to buy for college that I've held on to. My rating represents that this is a fairly dry read and while informative it isn't necessarily that enjoyable a read. Read full review
