Neville Chamberlain, the Conservative Prime Minister who pursued the policy of appeasing Hitler that was domed to failure, is one of the most reinterpreted and written about of modern British Prime Ministers. In this new biography, Nick Smart takes a dispassionate look at Camberlain's life, career, achievements and failures. Whilst acknowledging the standard historical interpretations of Chamberlains actions, he offers instead a picture conditioned more by the opinions of contemporaries rather than by hindsight. Throughout the book Nick Smart stresses that the system in which Chamberlain found himself operating had more impact on the historical developments than anything he did himself. Presenting Chamberlain's life and politics in a nuanced way, Nick Smart's biography is a must read for anyone interested in British politics and its impact on the international stage.
