| Book Summary |
| also subtitled Creating the Modern Middle East, (1914–1922) is a 1989 history book written by Pulitzer Prize finalist David Fromkin, which describes the events leading to the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire during World War I, and the drastic changes that took place in the Middle Eastas a result, which he claims led to a new world war that's still going on today. It has been widely praised. Richard Holbrooke wrote: “Without knowledge of its backstory, no policymaker will get the region right... Of the vast array of books on the region, none is more relevant than Fromkin’s sweeping epic, A Peace to End All Peace.” William Roger Louis reviewed it in The New York Times, judging the book “excellent ... Readers will come away... not only enlightened but challenged.” The Times called the book “the truth and nothing but the truth.” |
