At the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, the international community came together to find a collective way forward in the aftermath of the First World War. The conference is often judged a failure, as the resulting Treaty of Versailles did not bring long-term peace with Germany. By following the activities of a key British delegate, the wartime Minister of Blockade Lord Robert Cecil, this book examines the struggles and identifies some under-acknowledged successes of the conference, as delegates from around the world grappled with the economic, political, and humanitarian catastrophes overwhelming Europe in 1919.
