John Galsworthy 
Saint’s Progress (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) 

In the novel 
Saint’s Progress, published in 1919, Galsworthy wrestles with issues of the Great War.  What was really being fought for:  love as the guiding principle of life, a balance between Might is Right and Right is Might or a basic belief in God?
