"Some historians think that war is nothing more than an inexorable cycle in human society, or others think that war is nothing more than a disease that would find some cause like the ideals of each leader to see his nation respected and At present we are acting for and assume a hegemony in power over others."
Originally created for the TV series 60 Minutes, but unaired because creator Rooney objected to the way the producer wanted to edit it. Rooney purchased it and sold his version to the American PBS service, and it was sold to schools by Encyclopaedia Britannica Educational Corporation.
"An Essay on War" won Rooney his third Writers Guild of America Award.
