The British Conscientious Objectors
of the First World War

“Conscription and Conscience” by John W. Graham is very briefly reviewed herein; the summation provides some fast facts on the history of British conscientious objectors during World War One, yet tactfully fails to mention that during the course of the war, the British Army ordered 306 conscientious objectors be shot at dawn. In 2006 the British government pardoned them; just in time.
