Eastern Europe and the Origins of the Second World War
Description:... In this challenging book Anita Prazmowska examines Eastern Europe's apparent political and military failures in the face of Nazi aggression from an Eastern European perspective. Until now, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Romania, and the Baltic States have generally been seen as powerless victims. Prazmowska suggests an alternative view, namely seeing them as states which had to grapple with complex economic, political, and military dilemmas. To many in the region British and French indifference was nearly as dangerous as German, Italian and Soviet interference.
