Description
The Forced War: When Peaceful Revision Failed by David L Hoggan. This masterful study of the origins of the Second World War is a landmark work in diplomatic history. Drawing on his Harvard University doctoral dissertation, author David L Hoggan presents a compelling case for why Hitler's decision to attack Poland in 1939 was not solely Germany's responsibility. Hoggan examines the events leading up to the war, including Britain's foreign policy moves and the Munich agreement, and challenges the prevailing narrative of twentieth century history. He argues that Britain's actions, particularly its "blank check" guarantee to Poland on March 31, 1939, played a significant role in creating an environment in which war became almost inevitable. A completely reset and reformatted new edition of this influential work makes it available for readers who want to gain a deeper understanding of the complex events that led to one of the most devastating conflicts of the twentieth century.
