Series Questions in History
Summary/Abstract The term appeasement can be used to describe a country's attempt to use diplomacy to reduce the number of its potential enemies. This is what the politicians of the 1930s were trying to do. Appeasement was not a single policy. It was widely accepted in the 1930s that Britain could not afford to take on all three of her potential enemies simultaneously as well as meet her obligations to the League of Nations. Decision making during each crisis involved decisions about strategic priorities and economic policy as well as diplomacy.

0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Jonathan Cape, 1998.
Description 104pWhite spine
Summary/Abstract Utterly original, deeply moving and very funny, Ethel and Ernest is the story of Raymond Briggs' parents' marriage, from their first chance encounter to their deaths told in Brigg's unique strip-cartoon format. Nothing is invented, nothing embroidered-this is the reality of two decent, ordinary lives of two peoplewho, as Briggs tells the story, become representative of us all. The book is also social history; we see the dark days of the Second World War, the birth of the Welfare State, the advent of television and all the changes which were so exhilarating and bewildering for Ethel and Ernest. A marvellous, life-enhancing book for all ages.
