Sally Marks’ compelling analysis of European diplomacy between World War I and Hitler’s advent, explores the reasons why a lasting peace failed to occur in the interwar era. Building on the theories of the first edition, Marks argues that the Allied failure to bring defeat home to the German people, and the consequences of this oversight, were partly to blame, and reassesses Europe’s leaders and the policies of the powers. Thoroughly revised and updated in the light of recent scholarly and documentary research, the second edition of this highly successful text also includes new material, maps, and an extended bibliography.

Yet, at the Paris Peace Conference, Be...

  • The Ebbing of European Ascendancy
    Sally Marks
    In a space of little over 30 years, the world was transformed. The European great powers were no longer ascendant, even if that was not yet fully revealed to them, and the US, a regional power as of 1914, now belonged to the wholly new category of 'superpower.' What happened in this short period to work such a dramatic change? The answer lies neither in Europe alone nor in the ...
