Prologue : Inflection points -- Onward to Paris -- Le Début -- Le Mistral -- The state of the Jews -- A wicked wind from the east -- A pair of princes -- All aboard the Orient Express -- Into the Balkan soup -- Greater Asian insecurity -- Where did they all go?

Examines how the failure of the victors at the end of World War I to create a peace settlement based on reconciliation rather than a consolidation of their own powers led to the instability of the Balkans and the Middle East, which continues to the present day.
