HITLER AND APPEASEMENT: THE BRITISH ATTEMPT TO PREVENT THE SECOND WORLD WAR
Published by Hambledon Continuum. 2007
Slightly better than very good condition. Hitler, Mussolini and Japan posed a terrible threat to Britian and its empire. Britain strove to sustain peace for as long as possible by the traditional tools of diplomacy and accomodation. Stigmatised as 'Appeasement', this has often been held to be a bankrupt policy, epitomised by Chamberlain's Munich Agreement in 1938, handing over the Sudetenland. This book shows, in contrast, that many of the government's policies were reasonable and well though out... no one in Britain wished to be in another war. Pictorial cardwraps. B/w photos. xiii and 240 pages including index.
