About This Item
London: Macmillan/BBC, 1989 0333441826. Hardcover. First edition. First printing. VG/VG. The DW is not price-clipped. No annotations or inscriptions but with indentation on front cover.. 364 pp Select bibliography, references & appendix, B & W photographic, map & other illus., tall 8vo. This is the story of how each state reacts to the crisis of 1930s, the story of their road to war.It recaptures the concerns, anxietes and prejudices of the statesmen in that time and the people they led. This is a controversial book. Nineteen forty-five remains a great divide, and the horrifying experience of the war years colours and distorts our understanding of the 1930s from which the war sprang. This book sets out to ask, without resort to hindsight, why the world's great powers found themselves involved in this war of greatest destruction between 1939-45. .
