Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. "Diplomacy of Illusion: The British Government and Germany, 1937-39" by Robert Keith Middlemas. Published by Weidenfeld and Nicolson of London. Hardcover First Edition in blue cloth with gold spine lettering. In Very Good condition without a jacket. The covers are in great shape with rubbed corners. The binding is square and tight, with minor abrasion to the front flyleaf. The interior pages are clean and unmarked.This marks the premier in-depth exploration of how the British government grappled with the resurgence of Germany and managed the Munich crisis. Utilizing newly accessible British archives from 1939, Mr. Middlemas sheds light on previously unexplored facets: the influence of Anglo-American and Anglo-French relations; the British Cabinet's sometimes flawed handling of received information; the pressures of public opinion, the press, and political parties; the role of the military; and the considerable infighting within the Cabinet.When Neville Chamberlain assumed the role of Prime Minister in 1937, he shifted Britain's policy towards Germany to a purely defensive stance. However, no agreement could be reached with Germany or Italy. Following the invasion of Austria in March 1938, the British Cabinet feared Czechoslovakia would be next, potentially dragging Britain into a European war on behalf of France. While the Cabinet planned to dismantle Czechoslovakia and compel France to betray her ally, the British armed forces maintained a defensive posturepositioning Britain for a role already envisioned within a separate sphere of influence outside Europe. Yet, by 1938, this was too late. Munich narrowly averted war. Nonetheless, the Chamberlain government failed to grasp the lesson and pursued an appeasement strategy until the invasion of Czechoslovakia in March 1939. It also neglected to rearm. Mr. Middlemas contends that Chamberlain's foreign policy was realistic in a narrow sense, aligning with Britain's deficiencies. However, it lacked efforts to prepare the public for a more active role and neglected rearmament. Moreover, the policy came too late to capitalize on earlier offers from Hitler. It was an approach to the German threat that grossly underestimated British strength, as the war years would reveal. Mr. Middlemas's profoundly comprehensive interpretation of these events renders his book an indispensable resource for anyone deeply interested in the origins of World War II.The book will be meticulously packaged for shipment to ensure protection from the elements.
