What, besides martial glory and the loss of countless lives, brings a war to an end?
In this brilliant polemical essay, the historian A.J.P Taylor shows how accidents, freak judgments, personal ambitions and, in Europe, the consistent problem of Poland, can prepare the ground for future conflict even as they provide a return to normality and peace.
How Wars End provides a fascinating over-view of the resolution of the great conflicts of the past. It is required reading for anyone interested in war, military studies or diplomacy.
Praise for A.J.P. Taylor:
'The most readable, sceptical and original of modern historians' - Michael Foot
'Anything Mr Taylor writes is worth reading ... he is our greatest popular historian since Macaulay' - The Spectator
'His informal, pithy style makes the book compelling - even exciting - reading' - The Irish Times
A.J.P. Taylor (1906-90) was one of the most controversial historians of the twentieth century. He served as a lecturer at the Universities of Manchester, Oxford, and London. Taylor was significant both for the controversy his work on Germany and the Second World War engendered and for his role in the development of history on television.
