The World Crisis: The Aftermath

Once the war was over, the story didn't end-not for Winston Churchill, and not for the West. The fourth volume of Churchill's series The World Crisis documents the fallout of World War I-including the Irish Treaty and the peace conferences between Greece and Turkey. The period immediately after World War I was extremely chaotic-and it takes a genius of narrative description and organization to accurately and accessibly describe it for us. Churchill, who went on to receive a Nobel Prize in Literature, depicts the international disorganization and anarchy in the period immediately after the war-with the unique perspective of both a historian and a political insider.
