Description
Book SynopsisAlan Sharp is Emeritus Professor of International History at the University of Ulster, UK.
Trade ReviewAlan Sharp’s book offers an invaluable overview of the post-First World War peace treaties for students and for the general reader. It is a pleasure to see a new and updated third edition that includes an excellent survey of the historical debate on the topic. * David Stevenson, LSE, UK *
The comprehensive chronology of key events, the long list of dramatis personae, and especially the excellent annotated bibliography which reviews the historiography of the subject since the last edition, admirably complements the superb text to qualify the third edition of The Versailles Settlement as the most valuable treatment of the subject available. * William R. Keylor, Boston University, USA *
