Praise for I Ain't Marching Anymore: "I Ain't Marching Anymore is a must-read addition to books on the U.S. peace movement." --CounterPunch "In writing I Ain't Marching Anymore, Chris Lombardi examines dissent in a manner that glorifies those who object to war as much as the public generally glorifies the nation's most heroic warriors. I strongly recommend that high school and college students read her book as part of establishing a value system for life." --The VVA Veteran "Lombardi covers a lot of ground and chronicles events too little remembered today. Anti-war activists and civil libertarians will find aid and comfort in stories of those who just said no." --Kirkus Reviews "An enlightening roundup of the long tradition of resistance within America's armed forces.

" --Publishers Weekly "Lombardi's book is well written and thoroughly researched, and includes many personal stories that offer great insight into the courage each dissenter had to summon and the consequences of their action." --Booklist "This big-picture overview makes Lombardi's meticulously researched text essential reading. Beginning with Ritter's revolutionary act of conscience, she covers every armed conflict the U.S. has engaged in and zeroes in on the many principled acts of courage that have turned flag-waving patriots into anti-war activists. The result is both harrowing and inspiring." --The Indypendent "What is striking and uplifting about this densely researched book is how often, and how naturally, people rediscover or unearth their humanity by refusing to kill and organizing against war." --Frida Berrigan, Waging Nonviolence "Tens of thousands of books have been written about the American military in battle.

But this is the first I've ever seen that tells the full story of more than two centuries of brave and stubborn dissenters who questioned whether these wars should be fought at all. Chris Lombardi honors these heroes with the vivid and lively narrative that they deserve." --Adam Hochschild "With I Ain't Marching Anymore, Chris Lombardi has given us both a thorough history of military dissent going back to the American Revolution and a vivid series of wartime set pieces that bring these dissenters to life. The result is a highly original book, at once scholarly and intimate, exposing the clash between personal conviction and social expectation whose significance stretches far beyond the battlefield." --Eric Jaffe, author of A Curious Madness: An American Combat Psychiatrist, a Japanese War Crimes Suspect, and an Unsolved Mystery from World War II.
