About this ebook
A Field of Broken Stones, first published in 1950 (after numerous rejections by ‘traditional’ publishers, the book was printed by the Libertarian Press), is Lowell Naeve’s account of his experiences as a conscientious objector to the Second World War, starting with his refusal to be drafted, followed by his prison time. The book describes Naeve’s personal transformation as his political and social views develop through talks with fellow inmates, his writing, and his drawings and paintings (some of which are included in the book). Naeve was eventually released from prison on May 14, 1946. Naeve would continue to be a social activist, and also taught art at a school in Vermont. He eventually settled in Creston, British Columbia, where he passed away on August 21, 2014 at the age of 97.
