Oppenheim, supra note 1, at 323–324: “[The rudiments of international law] ought also to be tought in all secondary schools, and the teachers of history are the proper persons who could best undertake [this] […] If the public knew something about the merits of the case concerned they would frequently look upon the matter more cooly and in a more impartial way, and it would be easier for the governments to consent to arbitration.”
