Recenzii
'An essential corrective to the image that has been created of Nevile Henderson as an invertebrate appeaser... Written in a lucid and cultured way, and based upon a very wide variety of sources, this is one of the most outstanding contributions to appeasement scholarship in recent years.' - Andrew Crozier, Reader in History, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London
'This important book fills a chronic gap in the historiography of appeasement. Peter Neville's book is the first major study of a subject far too long neglected and slighted. For over fifty years Sir Nevile Henderson, Britain's ambassador to Berlin 1937-9, has been almost uniformly written off by historians and branded as a prime scape-goat for appeasement. For the first time Peter Neville puts the case for Henderson and places him fairly and convincingly in context as an experienced and hitherto well thought-of diplomat attempting to cope in an impossible situation.' - A. Lentin, Reader in History, The Open University
'...well-researched...makes a significant contribution to the still growing literature on the years of appeasement.' - D.J. Dutton, Diplomacy & Statecraft
'...a vibrant and articulate book that deserves to be read.' - N.J. Crowson, Contemporary British History
