BIG IDEAS

  • A Shattered Peace
    David shares his perspective of what he believes was a turning point in the history of our nation and the world today. From Iraq and Israel, to Kosovo and the Balkans, China, Japan and Vietnam, the great conflicts of our own time had their origins back in those few months in Paris nearly a century ago. A Shattered Peace: Versailles 1919 and the Price We Pay Today explores the characters, large and small, who came to Paris, determined to transform the world. Many later became bold-faced names: Ho Chi Minh, Lawrence of Arabia, Felix Frankfurter, Marcel Proust, even Elsa Maxwell who helped introduce le jazz Americain to her fabulous salons in that epiphanal year of 1919.
