During World War One, Conscientious Objectors united to oppose the war despite the criticism they faced. Three of these anti-war protest groups included the Conscientious Objector Information Bureau, the Union of Democratic Control, and the No-Conscription Fellowship. This database includes publications and internal papers from these anti-war protest groups, also of interest is Thomas Henry Ellison's scrapbook. Thomas was a Conscientious Objector and spent much of his time during the war in prison and his scrapbook covers both his own experiences and of the experience of the anti-war movement as a whole.
