Summary "Letters to 'The Times' upon War and Neutrality (1881-1920)" by Sir Thomas Erskine Holland is a collection of scholarly correspondences first published in the late 19th century and extending into the early 20th century. The work compiles letters written to the influential newspaper, "The Times," where Holland addresses significant issues in international law, particularly related to war and neutrality, amidst the backdrop of global conflicts and evolving legal standards. At the start of the publication, Holland provides an overview of his motivation behind aggregating these letters, emphasizing their relevance to ongoing discussions about international law as shaped by recent wars and treaties. He outlines how various treaties, including the Hague Conventions and Geneva agreements, have impacted the legal landscape regarding humanitarian practices during conflicts. The opening section discusses measures short of war for resolving international disputes and includes a detailed examination of diplomatic practices, such as petitions for mediation, thus setting the stage for a more in-depth exploration of international legal principles throughout the volume.
