I find Neville Chamberlain, Robert Self, ed., The Neville Chamberlain Diary Letters Volume 4: The Downing Street Years, 1934-1940 (London: Ashgate, £85.00 [USA $159.95] or £250.00 [$475.00] for the four-volume set, xii-588 pages, ISBN 0754652661)
absolutely riveting.

I'm currently reading Andrew Roberts interesting bio of Lord Halifax, The Holy Fox (link goes to amazon) . It's gotten me interested in reading more about the other leading appeasers. Does anyone know of a good, accessible, one volume work on Chamberlain or Wilson or others of their ilk? (hopefully one that wont bore me to tears). While I think that the appeasers deserve most of the opprobrium they've gotten in the last 70 years, I'd like to read more on their successes and failures before the 30s, to try and understand why they were so blind (like much of their contemporaries) to the danger Hitler posed.
