Fascinating !
For another great take on the Treaty of Versailles and its frightening consequences for the subsequent decades, do have a look at my wonderful new book, "A Shattered Peace: Versailles 1919 and the Price We Pay Today" [ www.shatteredpeace.com ] ... available through Amazon and most bookstores !
(i'd also be delighted to chat with your class via speakerphone or video hookup!)
All the best,
