The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation by Victor Davis Hanson. Uncommon Knowledge.
24 May 2024
The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation by Victor Davis Hanson. Uncommon Knowledge. Classicist Victor Davis Hanson is the Martin and Illie Anderson Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution and the author of hundreds of articles, book reviews, and newspaper editorials on Greek, agrarian, and military history and essays on contemporary culture. He has written or edited twenty-four books, the latest of which is The End of Everything: How Wars Descend into Annihilation. The book—and this conversation—charts how and why some societies choose to utterly destroy their foes and warns that similar wars of obliteration are possible in our time. Hanson provides a warning to current societies not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
