This book is a collection of accounts about the crucial year in world history. The Versailles Peace Conference takes center stage, while many other details, including the baseball season which will culminate with the Black Sox scandal, social trends of great and minor import (Prohibition and Votes for Women, as well as new fashion trends), Herbert Hoover's observations on the humanitarian crisis the world faced in the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, and revolutionary fervor in Germany, Russia, Ireland, India, and elsewhere, are interspersed throughout the book, giving us a feel of what life was like in 1919. One world war comes to an end while the roots of a second begin, the shooting continues in eastern Europe, and the seeds of future wars are planted in the Middle East.
