Description

---

This vintage book contains John Maynard Keynes's 1919 treatise, 'The Economic Consequences of the Peace'. The book was written and published after Keynes attended the Versailles Conference as a British delegate, where he argued for a more generous peace settlement. This book, containing his thoughts apropos this subject, became a best-seller throughout the world and was pivotal in engendering a public opinion that the Versailles Treaty was a ''Carthaginian peace''. The chapters of this book include: 'Introductory', 'Europe Before the War', 'The Conference', 'The Treaty', 'Reparation', 'Europe After the Treaty', and 'Remedies'. We are republishing this vintage book now in an affordable, modern edition, complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
