This book is a collection of the diary letters of Austen
Chamberlain from 1916 to 1937. These letters provide a valuable
insight into the political life of one of the leading Conservative
politicians of the inter-war period, and constitute a detailed
record of Conservative and national politics at this time. They
provide particularly valuable personal accounts of key events such
as the negotiations of the Irish Treaty in 1921, the troubles
leading to the Carlton Club revolt of October 1922, the Locarno
agreements of 1925, the leadership crisis of 1930-31, and the
backbench campaign against the German threat in the 1930s.
Chamberlain felt free to express his most candid feelings and
emotions in the privacy of these diary letters and, as a result,
they throw much valuable light upon arguably one of the most
misjudged politicians of the age, and one who has certainly been
overshadowed by his more famous father and half-brother.
