Description

Large trade paperback. 544 pages. Bibliographic References, Selected Bibliography, Index. Illustrated with photographs. First edition, first printing with full number line. A biography of the year following the end of the Great War, fought, for Americans at least, under the aegis of Wilson’s fourteen points. But as would happen 100 years later, American democracy was strained. conspiratorial fantasies abounded, race riots multiplied and civil liberties were increasingly jeopardized by the call for security. A brilliant reminder that as Americans, we have been here before. Bank name and pin number written on first page, moderate toning to extremities of text block. No spine crease. No underlining, highlighting or other marking. A tight, sound, otherwise unmarked copy. Good.
