Review: Appeasement in 2018-2019 reflects appeasement in the 1930s. - A supremely good work of history. The appeasing personality is laid bare. Such history is of enormous relevance to the present day. We had the talentless Chamberlain and Nazi Germany, and now we have Theresa May, the epitome of ambition without talent, narcissism sheltering under the cover of virtue and duty, and the anti-democratic EU. In both cases we have the Conservative Party choosing gutless nonentities as leaders, leading to near disaster. Chamberlain would have happily have made Britain a vassal state of Germany in exchange for peace with dishonour. May sought to sell her sordid deal to make the UK a vassal state of the EU as an escape from the dictates of the EU. Chamberlain was humiliated, along with the country, by Hitler. May was humiliated, along with the country, by the smug pompous and corrupt EU leaders. Chamberlain's gutlessness was supported, for a time, by a majority of the population of Britain. Today we have almost half the country actively wishing to become slaves to a European dictatorship, that openly wishes to destroy nation states. Thank God Chamberlain went and Churchill took on the task. Chamberlain's legacy, had he remained, would have been the destruction of Britain. May's legacy may still well be the destruction the Britain, by Marxism. If Corbyn and his totalitarian and racist henchmen are elected in due course, May will be to blame. She put ego and vanity before country. We have history rhyming here. Let us hope that we escape again, by the skin of our teeth, as we did in 1939 to 1945. Buy this wonderful book.
Review: Outstanding and insightful history - I've read extensively about this historic period of history, yet learned so much from reading Tim Bouverie's gripping narrative that concentrates on Britain's role in the run-up to the Second World War. Bouverie's analysis is faultless, his presentation of the facts insightful, his characterisation of the leading players vivid. It's hard to dispute his conclusions. I'm particular, the falsehood of the argument that Munich gave Britain an extra year to prepare for war, which was so vital to our survival. Britain's defences should have been addressed many years ago as it was obvious the Nazi war machine was getting mightier from the moment Hitler gained power; Chamberlain's policy up to the outbreak of war was peace, not to prepare Britain for war; and, fatally, Chamberlain had no Plan B, staking all on appeasement. Well worth reading even if you're not an expert on the period; the book explains the events, characters involved, and Britain's policy extremely well. A triumph.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent, well-worth-reading
*by J***N on 24 June 2019*

I greatly enjoyed this book. It is well worth reading, well-written and kept my attention throughout. The main narrative is well-known but the author manages to bering new insights through well-chosen stories and quotations. Perhaps too many examples in places where he is simply repeating one additional idiocy after another. But overall, the book is thoughtful, engaging and fascinating. My one gripe is the title. This book is all about Chamberlain and the policy of appeasement. It is not about Churchill who appears relatively little. This doesn't detract from the book itself, but the title is misleading and perhaps a tad opportunistic. In addition, there could be more about the attitudes of other actors: the Labour and Liberal parties, the defence forces and the Church, for example.
