A Year of Global Turmoil

Ajutor

Copertina de David Charlwood: 1920 (PDF)

Violent uprisings are tearing apart the Middle East, nationalism is on the march in Europe and an unlikely presidential candidate is running for election in the US on a populist platform to put ‘America first’. The year is 1920. 1920: A Year of Global Turmoil tells the story of twelve months that set in motion one hundred years of history. From America to Asia, the events of 1920 foreshadowed the decline of empires, the coming of another global conflict and the rise of an American president who would change his country’s relationship with the world. Weaving personal accounts with grand narrative, it vividly illuminates a past which echoes the present.
