Beskrivelse af The Great Adventure At Washington
The Great Adventure at Washington: The Story of the Conference (1922) is a historical account written by Mark Sullivan. The book recounts the events of the Washington Naval Conference, which was held in Washington D.C. in 1921-22. The conference was attended by representatives from the United States, Great Britain, Japan, France, Italy, and Belgium, and its aim was to reduce the naval arms race that had developed among these nations after World War I. Sullivan's book provides a detailed description of the negotiations and discussions that took place during the conference. He explores the various proposals put forward by the different countries, the compromises that were reached, and the final agreements that were signed. The book also delves into the personalities of the key figures involved in the conference, including President Warren G. Harding, Secretary of State Charles Evans Hughes, and the Japanese delegation led by Baron Kato.In addition to its historical content, The Great Adventure at Washington also offers insights into the political and social climate of the early 1920s. Sullivan examines the attitudes and beliefs of the different nations involved in the conference, as well as the domestic politics that influenced their negotiating positions. He also touches on issues such as race relations, immigration, and the role of women in society.Overall, The Great Adventure at Washington is a comprehensive and engaging account of a pivotal moment in international relations. It provides readers with a deeper understanding of the forces that shaped the post-World War I world and the efforts made to prevent another global conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
