'I Don't Believe In Murder'
Author: Margaret Lovell-Smith Publisher: Canterbury University Press
More than 350 men were imprisoned in New Zealand during World War I for sedition or resisting military service. Among them were numerous Canterbury pacifists, motivated to resist the tide of militarism and imperialism that was sweeping the world. I Don't Believe In Murder is an alternative history of the years before, during and after New Zealand's involvement in World War I. It depicts the strong response made by Canterbury's labour, socialist and women's movements to pre-war compulsory military training and wartime conscription. Most importantly, it tells the stories of the people who made Christchurch the leading city in the peace movement, and of the young men who refused to fight, enduring imprisonment, hardships and loss of civil rights - all determined to follow their consciences and take a religious, humanitarian or political stand against war. Drawing on archives, newspapers and family collections, this is a crucial narrative for understanding the moral dilemmas posed by a country's participation in armed conflict.

SOOOO COMFORTABLE
Size: Large, Color: 2 Black,2 Blue,light Coffee
LOVED THESE SO MUCH. FIRST, BOUGHT THEM IN A MEDIUM (I AM 5'3 AND 143 LBS -- WEIGHT GAIN OF 10 LBS DUE TO COVID 19), BUT THEY DID CURL UP. IT DIDN'T MATTER...I COULDN'T EVEN 'FEEL' ANYTHING DIFFERENT FROM THE MOMENT I PUT THEM ON -- THEY FLEX RIGHT WITH YOU -- SO SOFT. LOVED THEM SO MUCH, I BOUGHT THEM IN A LARGE. I WILL EITHER WEAR THEM TO BED...OR UNDER MY DRESSES. BOTH SIZES FEEL SO COMFORTABLE -- DOESN'T MATTER WHICH SIZE. IF THEY DON'T HAVE YOUR DESIRED SIZE, TRY THE NEXT SIZE -- YOU WON'T FEEL ANY PINCHING OR DISCOMFORT. AGAIN...SOOO SOFT.

Very soft and lightweight
Color: White, Size: X-Large
I bought this when I had shingles and needed something soft but thin as a barrier between my skin and a sweater or sweatshirt. This was perfect. It’s super soft, non irritating, and was lightweight.
