Publisher's summary

The Economic Consequences of the Peace (1919) is a book written by the British economist John Maynard Keynes. After the First World War, Keynes attended the Paris Peace Conference of 1919 as a delegate of the British Treasury. In this book, he argued for a more generous peace, not out of a desire for justice or fairness - but for the sake of the economic well-being of all of Europe, including the Allied Powers, which the Treaty of Versailles would prevent.

If you have any interest in the 20th century, read this book!

It is difficult to justify my smug assessment that I am a reasonably well educated man when I consider that until a few weeks ago I had never heard of this amazing book. I am not an economist and John Maynard Keynes was just a footnote until, while listening to another book, I heard this one highly praised. Having listened to it, I now think it is one of the most important books of the 20th century. And to think that the educated leaders of Western Europe knew the consequences of their actions in formulating the Treaty of Versailles is stunning.
