The origins of the Second World War remain clouded in Churchillian
mythology. Sixty years on, Peter Neville's controversial book
provides an essential reassessment of the appeasement myths by
examining a central yet understudied figure. Sir Nevile Henderson
has been vilified as 'our Nazi Ambassador in Berlin' by historians
and popular memory alike. He has remained in disgrace despite the
widespread historical rethinking of appeasement in recent years.
Yet there has never before been a book-length study of Henderson
despite his central role as Britain's Ambassador. Peter Neville's
important reassessment draws upon primary documents to overturn
orthodox interpretations. While Henderson's analysis of the Nazi
regime was seriously flawed, history has vastly overstated his
influence. In presenting the first full and close analysis of what
Henderson himself called 'the failure of a mission', the author has
made a pathbreaking contribution to the history of appeasement.
