In this magisterial narrative, Zara Steiner traces the twisted road to war that began with Hitler's assumption of power in Germany. Covering a wide geographical canvas, from America to the Far East, Steiner provides an indispensable reassessment of the most disputed events of these tumultuous years.
The narrative explores the complex path to war initiated by Hitler's rise to power, offering a comprehensive analysis of significant global events from America to the Far East. Steiner's work serves as an essential reevaluation of the contentious moments leading up to the conflict, providing insights into the geopolitical dynamics of the era.
Focusing on the reconstruction of Europe in the 1920s, the analysis challenges the notion that the Treaty of Versailles directly led to World War II. It highlights both the failed efforts and the overlooked successes that offered hope for stability. Despite achieving some degree of fragile stabilization, the period ultimately succumbed to nationalist approaches during the 1929-1933 crisis, shifting away from international strategies. A subsequent volume will continue the exploration of European dynamics from 1934 to 1941.
