Robert Lynn Fuller. After D-Day
In the introduction of this well-written study, After D-Day: The U.S. Army Encounters the French, Robert Lynn Fuller promises to bring “variety, complexity, and nuance” (3) to the story of the Allied liberation of France in the summer of 1944 by placing “the French population back into the history” (7). Fuller rightly notes that the French civilian experience of liberation is too often missing from popular military histories of World War II. Yet …

De Gaulle
Massive, imposing, authoritative, ponderous: Julian Jackson’s excellent biography of Charles de Gaulle bears a strong resemblance to the man himself. And, like the 6’4” general, this superb book will overshadow all others on the topic. Jackson, Professor of History at Queen Mary University of London, is the leading historian of twentieth century France. His early work analyzed the economic upheaval, political turmoil, and social experimentation o…
One Hundred Years of Russian-American Relations
In the spring of 2017 many members of SHAFR participated in an exchange of emails and expressed frustration, indeed exasperation, over the prevailing state of affairs in the United States and elsewhere around the globe. Scholars voiced their dismay at the disregard for truth, facts, and objective analysis, as well as the scorn for expertise, among our leaders and in our public discourse. SHAFR members asked one another how they could make a diffe…
Never at War
This lively survey of the history of conflict between democracies reveals a remarkable—and tremendously important—finding: fully democratic nations have never made war on other democracies. Furthermore, historian Spencer R. Weart concludes in this thought-provoking book, they probably never will. Building his argument on some forty case studies ranging through history from ancient Athens to Renaissance Italy to modern America, the author analyzes…
Dangerous First Year
Bruno Cabanes. The Great War and the Origins of Humanitarianism, 1918–1924
Was there a “humanitarian moment?” Bruno Cabanes, in his important new book, argues that there was. In the years just after the First World War, an astonishing number of new international agencies were founded with the express purpose of aiding the victims of war, a capacious category that included veterans, disabled soldiers, displaced persons, stateless and starving refugees, and homeless children, among others. Cabanes charts the work of the m…
Word War I and the humanitarian impulse
The Great War is quite rightly associated with the tragedies of the battlefield, with combat deaths of nearly ten million soldiers, with the construction of the vast network of cemeteries all across northern Europe that Kipling called “cities of the dead,” and with the emotional and psychic scarring of a generation of European peoples. Knowing the political and military history' of post-1918 Europe, we think of the Great War as but the first act …

Martin Conway. The Sorrows of Belgium
In this excellent book, Martin Conway asks how Belgium, a nation so sharply divided along linguistic, political, class, and religious lines, managed not only to survive the shocks of World War II but to emerge from the war years largely unchanged in its basic political structures. Despite the traumas of foreign occupation, economic turmoil, political factionalism, social upheaval, liberation, and reconstruction, all overlaid upon a country with p…
The Struggle for Europe
From War to Peace
In this timely collection, a dozen leading scholars of international affairs consider the twentieth century's recurring failure to construct a stable and peaceful international order in the wake of war. Why has peace been so hard to build? The authors reflect on the difficulties faced by governments as they sought a secure world order after the First World War, the Second World War, and the Cold War. Major wars unleashed new and unexpected forces…

France Restored
Historians of the Cold War, argues the author of this book, have too often overlooked the part that European nations played in shaping the post-World War II international system. In particular, he contends that France has been given short shrift. Drawing on a wide array of evidence from French, American and British archives, he aims to show that France constructed a coherent national strategy for domestic and international recovery and pursued th…
Colonialism
Osterhammel's book represents a new approach to the subject. The concise but sweeping study encompasses the process of colonization and decolonization from the early modern period to the twentieth century. Virtually all other studies to date have looked at strategies of colonial conquest, exploitation, and rule from the imperial point of view. Osterhammel shows that the colonial situation developed in ways that duplicated neither the metropolis n…
