The past is not dead. It is not even past. And it is trying to tell us something.
Every crisis of the present carries the echo of crises past. The Thucydides Trap whispers through US-China rivalry. The sleepwalkers of 1914 haunt the corridors of Brussels and Beijing. The economic nationalism of the 1930s stalks the trade wars of the 2020s. And the Cold War's shadow falls across every headline about deterrence, containment, and proxy conflict.
In History Doesn't Repeat But It Rhymes, Nicholas Holt reveals the patterns that connect the crises of yesterday to the conflicts of today. This is not a book of historical trivia. It is a manual for reading the present through the lens of the past — and for anticipating the future by understanding what has come before.
