The Deluge: The Great War, America and the Remaking of the Global Order, 1916 – 1931

byAdam Tooze

The Deluge examines the Great War, America and the Remaking of the Global Order, 1916: 1931, combining Adam Tooze's clear narrative with the perspective of a historical account. Moving between close detail and context, the book explains the forces surrounding its subject and connects them to the wider field of history. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
