The War Prayer Of Now And Then
-
- Ficción
By Mark Twain, 1904
Samuel Langhorne Clemens (November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910), better known by his pen name Mark Twain, was an American writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher and lecturer. Among his novels are The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1885), the latter often called "The Great American Novel."
"The War Prayer", a short story or prose poem by Mark Twain, is a scathing indictment of war, and particularly of blind patriotic and religious fervor as motivations for war.
MUSIC:
"Candlepower" by Chris Zabriskie
"Patriotic songs of America" by New York Military Band and the American Quartet
