Paris 1919: Six Months That Changed the World is Margaret MacMillan’s acclaimed history of the Paris Peace Conference of 1919, when the victors of the First World War gathered to remake the map of the world. Focusing on the six months in which Woodrow Wilson, David Lloyd George, and Georges Clemenceau dominated the negotiations, MacMillan brings to life the personalities, ambitions, and compromises that produced the Treaty of Versailles and redrew the borders of Europe and the Middle East, sowing conflicts that endure to this day. First published in Britain as Peacemakers, the book won the Samuel Johnson Prize, the Duff Cooper Prize, and the PEN Hessell-Tiltman Prize, and established MacMillan, a great-granddaughter of David Lloyd George, as one of the leading popular historians of her generation.
