Review:

'[This] is a decidedly useful book. Its author is blessed with extensive knowledge of a wide range of countries, large and small, and of the complex inter-relationship between them...In short, it fills an evident gap very successfully.' - Robin Prior and Trevor Wilson, Journal of Contemporary History

'...packs an admirable punch.' - Kelly McFall, The Historian

'A useful book that fills a gap and offers a valuable fresh perspective on the origins of the war in a one volume survey on Eastern Europe.' - Patrick Finney, University of Wales, Lampeter

'This book is extremely welcome and a detailed regional treatment of this sort is long overdue.' - Martin Thomas, University of the West of England

'...wonderful to see this aspect of 1930-41 covered so well.' - Dr. O.A. Hartley, University of Leeds
