Product Description

The second edition has been revised and updated to reflect the needs of the current specifications. The title concentrates on the origins of the Second World War in Europe and Hitler's central role in those events. Appeasement and the historical debate surrounding the policies adopted by Baldwin and Chamberlain are examined through accessible narrative and up-to-date research. By adopting a chronological approach, the author highlights clearly how events unfolded and interacted with each other to lead to the most destructive war in human history.

Throughout the book key dates, terms and issues are highlighted, and historical interpretations of key debates are outlined. Summary diagrams are included to consolidate knowledge and understanding of the period, and exam style questions and tips for each examination board provide the opportunity to develop exam skills.

Customer Reviews

an in depth look at appeasement
I realise that this is a very short review but I had just had to write and say to anyone who is doing GCSE history this is a very worthwhile book. It gives you bullet points to remeber for the exams which i think are going to be extremely useful for me.
