David Fromkin wrote modern history and international affairs, especially on the First World War and the political settlement that reshaped the Middle East. A Peace to End All Peace examines how wartime decisions and post-war diplomacy contributed to the creation of new borders and states from the Ottoman Empire, while Europe's Last Summer reconstructs the diplomatic crisis leading to 1914.
