Publisher's Synopsis
""An Intelligent American's Guide To The Peace"" by Sumner Welles is a book that provides a comprehensive analysis of the Treaty of Versailles and its impact on the world after World War I. The author, who served as the Undersecretary of State during the Roosevelt administration, offers his insights into the diplomatic negotiations that led to the Treaty and the subsequent failures of the League of Nations. He also examines the political and economic consequences of the Treaty, including the rise of fascism and the onset of World War II. Welles argues that the Treaty was flawed in its design and execution, and that the United States missed an opportunity to play a more active role in shaping the post-war world. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of international relations and diplomacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
