Drawing on inexhaustible reserves of energy and knowledge, the distinguished British historian J. A. S. Grenville tells a story as remarkable for its sweep and drama as for its deft attention to detail. From the economic fallout of Versailles to the emergence of Japan, from the Great Depression to the Spanish Civil War, from the Soviet threat to the Middle East Crisis, we see history unfolding here and encounter the forces and personalities that have transformed the world. Grenville paints clear, sharp portraits of great events and of key figures such as Churchill and Hitler, Kennedy and Khrushchev, Mao and Gandhi, Golda Meir and Margaret Thatcher.
