The Myth of a Guilty Nation, by American libertarian, author, and social critic, Albert Jay Nock, was originally published in 1922. The work is Nock's first anti-war book, an anti-war sentiment he pursued for the rest of his career, and took to be a core component of his libertarian worldview. Nock takes American war propaganda to be built on falsehood, and that the real purpose of the war was to not liberate Europe from German imperialism, a fact clearly contradicted by United States diplomatic cables.
