Book ID/图书代码： 10567020C00004
English Summary/英文概要： "History writing at its best,1920 informs, entices and challenges, teasing out extraordinary parallels between our current world and that of a century ago." - Tim Butcher, author of Blood River
Violent uprisings are tearing apart the Middle East, nationalism is on the march in Europe and an unlikely presidential candidate is running for election in the US on a populist platform to put ’America first’. The year is 1920.
1920: A Year of Global Turmoil tells the story of twelve months that set in motion one hundred years of history. From America to Asia, the events of 1920 foreshadowed the decline of empires, the coming of another global conflict and the rise of an American president who would change his country’s relationship with the world. Weaving personal accounts with grand narrative, it vividly illuminates a past which echoes the present.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： ”历史写作的最佳时期是1920年，它告诉我们，诱惑和挑战，梳理出我们当前的世界和一个世纪前的世界之间的非凡相似之处。“——蒂姆•布彻，《血河》的作者
暴力起义撕裂了中东，民族主义在欧洲蔓延，一个不太可能的总统候选人正在以“美国优先”的民粹主义纲领竞选美国总统。那一年是1920年。
《1920年:全球动荡的一年》讲述了一个12个月的故事，这12个月开启了一百年的历史。从美国到亚洲，1920年的事件预示着帝国的衰落，另一场全球冲突的来临，以及一位将改变美国与世界关系的美国总统的崛起。这本书用宏大的叙事编织了个人故事，生动地阐明了过去与现在的呼应。（WYL)
