Paperback. Etat : Good. Before the Second World War became a fixed moral landmark in every schoolbook, A. J. P. Taylor did the historian?s most dangerous thing: he asked awkward questions about how it actually happened. The Origins of the Second World War is one of those books that arrives carrying both scholarship and controversy in its luggage. Taylor examines diplomacy, appeasement, treaties, miscalculation, ambition, weakness, and the uneasy machinery of Europe between the wars. It is not a battlefield history, but a study of the road to catastrophe, which is often more uncomfortable. There is a sharp irony here. Wars are often explained afterwards as inevitable, as if history were a railway line with no points. Taylor is much more interested in the muddle: bad judgement, competing national interests, missed chances, bluff, fear, and leaders who thought they were controlling events right up until events controlled them. This good Penguin copy, as sold by Crappy Old Books, is ideal for readers of modern history, diplomatic history, Second World War origins, and anyone who enjoys history that still has the power to start an argument decades after publication. THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE. N° de réf. du vendeur 6214

Paperback. Etat : Fair. A.J.P. Taylor's bestselling The Origins of the Second World War overturns popular myths about the outbreak of war. One of the most popular and controversial historians of the twentieth century, who made his subject accessible to millions, A.J.P. Taylor caused a storm of outrage with this scandalous bestseller. Debunking what were accepted truths about the Second World War, he argued provocatively that Hitler did not set out to cause the war as part of an evil master plan, but blundered into it partly by accident, aided by the shortcomings of others. Fiercely attacked for vindicating Hitler, A.J.P. Taylor's stringent re-examination of the events preceding the Nazi invasion of Poland on 1st September 1939 opened up new debate, and is now recognized as a brilliant and classic piece of scholarly research. 'Taylor's most perfect work of art, a miracle of proportion, language and insight' Robert Skidelsky 'A dazzling exercise in revisionism which summed up Taylor's paradoxical, provocative and inventive approach to history' The Times 'Taylor was a lifelong dissenter . at his best - as in The Origins of the Second World War . he shifted the ground of major debates' Ben Pimlott, Financial Times 'No historian of the past century has been more accessible' Niall Ferguson, Sunday Telegraph 'An almost faultless masterpiece' Observer 'Highly original and penetrating . No one who has digested this enthralling work will ever be able to look at the period again in quite the same way' Sunday Telegraph A.J.P. Taylor (1906-90) was one of the most controversial historians of the twentieth century. He served as a lecturer at the Universities of Manchester, Oxford, and London. A readable copy of the book which may include some defects such as highlighting and notes. Cover and pages may be creased and show discolouration. N° de réf. du vendeur GOR001275832
