El 30 de septiembre de 1938, el primer ministro británico, Neville Chamberlain, recién llegado de Múnich, anunciaba que su reunión con Hitler había evitado la mayor crisis de la época contemporánea y que la «paz para nuestra era estaba asegurada. Menos de un año después, Alemania invadía Polonia y estallaba la Segunda Guerra Mundial

Apaciguar a Hitler es el brillante relato del desastroso periodo de inacción política que permitió la consolidación del régimen nazi.

Narrado de forma trepidante y repleto de escenas memorables, este libro es el resultado de una profunda y exhaustiva investigación, ofrece un retrato perturbador e inquietante de los ministros, aristócratas y diplomáticos amateurs de la época, y desvela los mercadeos y vulgares intereses, las falsedades y posverdades que hicieron possible el ascenso del nazismo y acabaron provocando la gran deflagración.

Desde los comienzos del Tercer Reich, con la llegada al poder de Hitler en 1933, hasta los trágicos sucesos acontecidos en las playas de Dunquerque, Tim Bouverie no solo narra un momento histórico de gran envergadura, sino también una lección atemporal sobre las dificultades de alzarse en contra de la agresividad y el autoritarismo y las calamidades que resultan de no hacerlo.

«Tim Bouverie cuenta la historia del apaciguamiento con destreza, entusiasmo y garbo, y explora de manera brillante las mentalidades subyacentes a las decisiones políticas. -Ian kershaw

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS' CHOICE - SUNDAY TIMES (UK) BESTSELLER - A gripping new history of the British appeasement of Hitler on the eve of World War II

"An eye-opening narrative that makes for exciting but at times uncomfortable reading as one reflects on possible lessons for the present."--Antonia Fraser, author of Mary Queen of Scots

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.
