Abstract
This article discusses the antiwar work and pacifist writings of the founder of the War Resisters League. Jessie Wallace Hugh. The intertwining of the biographical and organizational narrative approach to writing history permits the author to explore the interplay of the personal and political in the life of Jessie Hughan. The author argues that Hughan played a central role in the new pacifist movement of the post‐World War I era. This view of Hughan is contextualized in terms of what scholars are now discovering about the interconnections among progressive and left‐wing politics, feminism, and pacifism in the era that spans World War I and World War II.
