Prelude to War
Sheldon Cotler, 1976
Description
The introductory volume examines the faltering peace that hovered over the world from 1918 until 1939. Under scrutiny are the fateful errors…urgent steps never taken…heads-in-the-sand postures of the major powers…the years of revolution, depression, threats, and counterthreats that brought Hitler, Mussolini, and Tojo to Power.
