The Peace Ship 1916: Henry Ford's Bid to End the Great War

Dr Kristofer Allerfeldt, Lecturer in American History, University of Exeter

Dr Kristofer Allerfeldt is an expert on modern American history from the end of the Civil War to the bombing of Pearl Harbour, and specialises in deviancy and bigotry, working on all aspects of crime and racism, nativism and prejudice. He has published works on anti-immigrant sentiment, visions of Americanism, the Ku Klux Klan and crime in general. His lecture looks at the Henry Ford Peace Expedition which carried a delegation of Americans to Norway, Sweden, and Holland to meet with fellow European pacifists in an attempt to end the Great War.
