About the author

University of Oxford. Faculty of Modern History appears in library and public-domain catalogs as the credited author of Why We Are at War (also listed as Why we are at war: Great Britain's case), a work published in 1914. Catalog records link the pamphlet with several individual contributors, suggesting that the name functioned as an institutional or collective attribution rather than identifying one person.

Because this is an academic body, not an individual author, there is no conventional personal life story to summarize. Modern Oxford sources now refer to the department as the Faculty of History, an academic unit within the University of Oxford focused on the teaching and research of medieval and modern history.
