Hi Steemit,

I just wanted to share with you all what book I'm currently reading.

PARIS 1919

For six months in 1919, after the end of "the war to end all wars," the Big Three -- President Woodrow Wilson, British prime minister David Lloyd George, and French premier Georges Clemenceau -- met in Paris to shape a lasting peace. In this landmark work of narrative history, Margaret MacMillan gives a dramatic and intimate view of those fateful days, which saw new political entities --- Iraq, Yugoslavia, and Palestine, among them --- born out of the ruins of bankrupt empires, and the borders of the modern world redrawn.

"For anyone interested in knowing how historic mistakes can morph into later historic problems, this brilliant book is a must-read." --Chicago Tribune.

I'm really excited to get a new perspective of the "Treaty of Versailles" which was signed after the conclusion of World War 1 and set the stages for a new war to come. Let me know in the comments below what you are currently reading and if historic books such as this interest you.

Stay tuned for my review of this 570 page book.
