The League of Nations at Work is a book written by Arthur Sweetser and published in 1920. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the League of Nations, an international organization established after World War I to promote peace and cooperation among nations. Sweetser begins by tracing the history of the League of Nations, from its origins in the Treaty of Versailles to its establishment in 1920. He then goes on to describe how the League operates, including its various organs and committees, such as the Assembly, the Council, and the Secretariat. The book also discusses some of the League’s early accomplishments, including its role in settling disputes between nations and promoting disarmament. Sweetser highlights the League’s efforts to prevent future wars, including the development of international law and the creation of the Permanent Court of International Justice. Throughout the book, Sweetser provides examples of the League’s work in action, including its efforts to resolve conflicts in Europe and the Middle East. He also discusses some of the challenges the League faced, such as the refusal of some nations to join or cooperate with the organization. Overall, The League of Nations at Work provides a detailed and informative account of the League’s early years, shedding light on an important period in international history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
