In DISCIPLE OF PEACE, Craig Watts offers the most comprehensive study ever done on the pacifism of Alexander Campbell. Watts not only provides a detailed examination of Campbell's pacifist thought, he sets it in the broader context of the antebellum American peace movement, showing that this towering figure was neither isolated nor idiosyncratic in his thinking. Campbell offered an important challenge to the religious world of the 19th century. Watts ably conveys Campbell's challenge to Christians facing war and violence in our time.

Watts is very helpful to include Alexander Campbell's "Address on War" as an Appendix.
This is an instructive and thoughtful book for persons interested in the Stone-Campbell heritage and/or the subject of pacifism and capital punishment.
The book is well documented. There is an index. (
