The Twilight of French Eastern Alliances, 1926-1936

Meer over het boek

The book delves into the failure of France, Poland, and Czechoslovakia to unite against the rising threat of German power between 1926 and 1936. Piotr Wandycz explores the reasons behind their lack of coordinated action despite the significant risks they faced. Building on his previous work on post-World War I alliances, he examines the disintegration of these relationships following the Locarno Pact, culminating in the critical period leading up to Hitler's remilitarization of the Rhineland.
