Chamberlain and the Lost Peace
About this book
An important new reappraisal of the immediate origins of World War II. Entertaining and absorbing....Chamberlain hardly emerges a hero from these pages, but at least there is no excuse left for regarding him as no more than a wimp in a wing-collar. -The Guardian
