Since Then

Through a series of astute observations and reports, Gibbs chronicles the social, political, and economic disturbances that rippled across Europe and beyond.The book delves into the fragility of the new world order, the rise of extremist ideologies, and the disillusionment of a generation scarred by conflict. Gibbs provides a firsthand perspective on the struggles of the League of Nations, the impact of the Russian Revolution, and the mounting tensions that threatened to undermine international stability. "Since Then: The Disturbing Story of the World at Peace" serves as a vital historical document, capturing the anxieties and uncertainties of the interwar period with the sharp eye of a witness to history.
