#ShopIndie and purchase Paperback copies of Tim Bouverie's Appeasement and Andrew Roberts' Churchill at https://www.midtownscholar.com/virtua... The Midtown Scholar Bookstore is delighted to welcome British historian Tim Bouverie, author of Appeasement: Chamberlain, Hitler, Churchill and the Road to War, in conversation with Andrew Roberts, bestselling author of Churchill: Walking with Destiny, on Sunday, June 21, 2020, at 2 PM ET. This live-streaming event is part of the Midtown Scholar Bookstore's new Virtual Event Series. About the Book: On a wet afternoon in September 1938, Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain stepped off an airplane and announced that his visit to Hitler had averted the greatest crisis in recent memory. It was, he later assured the crowd in Downing Street, "peace for our time." Less than a year later, Germany invaded Poland and the Second World War began. Appeasement is a groundbreaking history of the disastrous years of indecision, failed diplomacy and parliamentary infighting that enabled Hitler's domination of Europe. Drawing on deep archival research and sources not previously seen by historians, Tim Bouverie has created an unforgettable portrait of the ministers, aristocrats, and amateur diplomats who, through their actions and inaction, shaped their country's policy and determined the fate of Europe. Beginning with the advent of Hitler in 1933, we embark on a fascinating journey from the early days of the Third Reich to the beaches of Dunkirk. Bouverie takes us not only into the backrooms of Parliament and 10 Downing Street but also into the drawing rooms and dining clubs of fading imperial Britain, where Hitler enjoyed surprising support among the ruling class and even some members of the royal family. Both sweeping and intimate, Appeasement is not only an eye-opening history but a timeless lesson on the challenges of standing up to aggression and authoritarianism--and the calamity that results from failing to do so. #ShopIndie and purchase Paperback copies of Tim Bouverie's Appeasement and Andrew Roberts' Churchill at https://www.midtownscholar.com/virtua...
