Description for Georges Clemenceau Hardcover.
The Anglo-Saxon view of Georges Clemenceau (1841-1929) is based on John Maynard Keynes' misjudged caricature, that he had imposed a treaty that was harsh and oppressive of Germany.

The failure was not in the terms of the treaty but in the subsequent failure to insist on maintaining them in the face of German resistance.
