About the author
David Hunter Miller (1875–1961) was an American specialist in international law. He took part in the Paris Peace Conference and had a certain influence in the field of international law. His representative work, The Geneva Protocol, deals with issues of security and disarmament within the framework of the League of Nations at the time, reflecting his sustained attention to the texts of international treaties and the mechanisms of international organizations. Only one of his works is currently held in the collection, and publicly available information about his life and scholarship is limited, making a more detailed account of his personal career difficult. Readers may use this book to understand the historical context of international legal practice and multilateral diplomatic negotiations in the early twentieth century.
