Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "Right Off the Map" is a biting satirical novel that explores the machinery of war and the manipulation of public sentiment. Set in the fictional republics of Ria and Goya, the story follows the descent into conflict when a discovery of gold pits two neighboring nations against one another. Through the eyes of characters like Willan, a soldier of fortune, and Burnage, an idealistic yet malleable editor, C. E. Montague dissects how the press, business interests, and romanticized notions of patriotism can be weaponized to lead a population toward destruction.Written with the cynical wisdom of a seasoned journalist and soldier, the work serves as a powerful critique of the ease with which nationalistic fervor can be stoked. Montague's sharp prose examines the disconnect between the grueling reality of the battlefield and the jingoistic rhetoric found in the safety of the home front. "Right Off the Map" remains a poignant examination of political opportunism and the human cost of manufactured conflicts, standing as a significant contribution to early 20th-century literature and a timeless warning against the glamorization of war.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
