Item description from seller

First Edition. First Edition. 1939: The Making of the Second World War by Sidney Aster is a clear, tightly argued study of the diplomatic manoeuvring and political misjudgments that led Europe into war. Aster examines the decisions of Britain, France, Germany and the smaller states caught between them, showing how appeasement, mistrust and shifting alliances narrowed the chances of avoiding conflict. He pays close attention to the months immediately before September 1939, analysing the pressures on policymakers and the miscalculations that proved decisive. The book offers a concise, well-documented account of how a continent slid from tension into catastrophe, illuminating both the intentions and the failures that shaped the outbreak of war. First Edition.
