Reissue. xiv, 370pp, with occasional black and white illustrations. In laminated, illustrated light card covers. 8vo. Covers very gently rubbed on edges. Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. History makes choices. The way we see things now is not always how they seemed at the time. This chronicle of 1939 cuts across the demarcation lines of history to capture the way people perceived the events as they unfolded. War is not yet a certainty and the world has countless other concerns which have not yet been dwarfed by Hitler’s offensive – a world in which Chamberlain is still a credible leader and Churchill and Roosevelt are less than monumental.
