The topic about US Presidents set me thinking, and I found this rather interesting book, published in 1922. It looks like a fascinating glimpse at post-WWI Europe and elsewhere.
In this book the reader will meet fifteen Prime Ministers and four Presidents of Europe, four British Dominion Premiers, and eleven distinguished statesmen and diplomats of Japan, and he will enter the Chanceries and Foreign Offices in many Capitals.
