The five armistices arranged in the fall of 1918 determined the course of diplomatic events for many subsequent years. The armistice with Germany, the most important of the five, was really a peace treaty in miniature. Basing its account on a close study of archive material from the UK, France and the US, this book offers a detailed examination of the process which became an extensive diplomatic and military set of instructions to armies and governments. It also assesses the work of the leading figures in the process, as well the generals, admirals and diplomatic advisors who played supporting roles.
