Neville Chamberlain has gone down in the popular imagination as one
of the "guilty men", culpable for exposing his country to the costs
and humiliation of near-defeat. Yet for most of his life
Chamberlain enjoyed a very favourable reputation; appeasement and
even Munich won widespread popular support. Once war was declared,
he was seen as a competent war leader, at least until March/April
1940. In this work David Dutton looks at the ways in which
vilification of Neville Chamberlain developed after his fall from
power, and examines historians' recent attempts at rehabilitation.
The result is a study of the ebb and flow of the reputation of one
of the 20th-century's most controversial politicians, posing
questions not only about his conduct and the circumstances of his
time, but also about the nature and uses of the historical evidence
itself.
