The Appeasers by Martin Gilbert and Richard Gott offers broad view, including from the Foreign Office and British Embassy in Berlin. NOT sypathetic.
Must buy on the used-book market.

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.

Regards,

Bill
