Copertina de H. G. Wells: The War That Will End War (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) (ePUB)

Though the phrase “the war to end all wars” is associated with President Woodrow Wilson, it was actually coined by the outspoken novelist H. G. Wells in this 1914 collection of articles. Here he addressed British anti-war advocates and pacifists, arguing that only the defeat of German militarism could end war.
