Princeton University Press Locarno Diplomacy - Germany and the West, 1925-1929 - Princeton

Explore a critical period of European history with Locarno Diplomacy - Germany and the West, 1925-1929. Published by Princeton University Press as part of the Princeton Legacy Library, this work examines the Locarno Conference of 1925 and the five treaties that followed. These agreements marked a major turning point in the interwar years, representing Germany's acceptance of the 1919 peace settlement and the start of a new era of peace. Author Jon Jacobson uses documentary evidence, much of it recently made available, to investigate the personalities and politics surrounding these events. This book provides a historical interpretation and synthesis of a decade that shaped international relations. Originally published in 1972, this edition uses modern print-on-demand technology to bring this essential historical study back into print for students, historians, and readers interested in the evolution of 20th-century diplomacy.
