Originally published in 1991, The Roots of Appeasement outlines the
attitudes of the British weekly press and its editors to Nazism and
to German and British foreign policies during the 1930s. It
analyses and interprets the reasons which underlay those attitudes.
Aided by the evidence of the weeklies, it sheds additional light on
the roots and development of appeasement. After introducing the
weeklies and their editors, the study conveys and examines their
attitudes to the European crises of 1935-9 and one chapter focusses
on the popular fear of air attack as reflected in the journals. The
major conclusion of the book is that a consensus supporting
appeasement emerged in the weeklies in the course of 1935 and that
it remained virtually intact until September 1938.
